Never mind the politics of either side, the Dems ought to have been in position for a coronation & yet even pessimistic ol' doom & gloom me has already figured out that if McCain doesn't screw up he's probably going to pull this off.

Seems to me that the one that keeps winning probably isn't the one that gets to wear the "fucked beyond belief" label. But I have to admit watching the D's snatch defeat from the jaws of victory is kinda fun.
