Yes, odd as that may seem for a headline on my blog, Senator Barack Obama indeed expressed some serious wisdom this year, as quoted by Time magazine columnist Joe Klein.
"Whenever we (Democrats) exaggerate or demonize, or oversimplify or overstate our case, we lose," he wrote to liberal blog the Daily Kos.
Obama was referring to the vilification of John Roberts during his Supreme Court nomination hearings, but I think he nails the fundamental problem for the Democratic Party pretty much every time its members open their mouths.
They've lost their way,, they have no message, and they spend the majority of their time running around shrieking "Bush lied!"
If others in his party heed his wisdom, there may be hope for them yet.
But I'm not counting on it. Hillary in 2008!
