"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

NYT Editorial/Op-Ed - Democrats Peer Ahead

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/08/opinion/08thur2.html?th&emc=th

This comment is taken entirely out of context as the piece is regarding the Presidential Nomination Calendar, that said I found a comment within very intruiging.

"Even so, Democrats should be mindful that doing the wrong thing can be worse than doing nothing."

This pretty much describes their overall attitude over the past 5 years.
