From today's New York Times comes an disturbing article by Adam Nagourney. It opens with this quasi-jokingly posed question:
Is it really in the best interest of the Democratic Party to win control of the House and Senate in November? Might the party's long-term fortunes actually be helped by falling short?
What follows are the musings of some cowardly and/or brainlocked Democrats, uncritically entertained by yet another MSM reporter following the now-classic no matter what, Democrats are wrong script. By the end, it becomes clear that the article is no joke. Or, more accurately, is a sick joke.
