NOM's Sad Silver Lining.
every time you say maggie gallagher, i hear maggie gyllenhall, and think "yay!" and then "what??!". it's a truly weird case of cognitive dissonance.

"Soon America Is Going to Suck for All of Us".
Back in '04 I remember Slog linking to a whole bunch of inverse-schadenfreude (is that just "freude"? dunno) comments on a million conservative blogs, highlighting the sadism of R's.
One mentioned metaphorically "curb-stomping" Democratic voters.
So yeah, this is sweet.

Slog Poll: Who Is the Real Mitt Romney?.
Anyone remember Gladwell's story in Blink about Warren Harding getting elected just cause he "looked presidential" and had some minimal qualifications, but turned out to be a total disaster?

Washington Rallies in Support of Wisconsin Workers.

The Return of D Spine.
@20 "Democrats" is a pretty wide swath of the country writ large, including the vast majority of those who would be knowledgeable on how to fix "our problems".
