Thank God We Lost?
ByKevin Drum wonders if Kerry's loss was a good thing:
...were we, in fact, better off losing in 2004? The downside was four more years of George Bush and Dick Cheney. That's hardly to be minimized, especially since the upside is still not completely knowable. But for myself, I think I'm convinced. The cause of liberal change is better served by Obama in 2008 than it would have been by Kerry in 2004. Comments?
I endorsed Kerry because I felt I had no choice, given what we had already discovered about Bush and Cheney's unique mix of incompetent inerrancy. I feel much more confident in the character and ability of the Democrat this time around. But given the damage of the past four years, that's a minimal requirement. The task ahead is simply gargantuan.
