Comments from the Left VIII

The Village Voice:

"The Republicans fight dirty - No shit, Sherlock. This is politics not a tickle-fight. Buckle your chin-strap and go out there and hit somebody.

Democratic positions are too complex for the electorate. This is the moral equivalent of blaming the refs. It manages to, at once, demean Americans - the very people we need to vote for us - while conveniently absolving the Dems of blame. Even if we accept the line, hey, that's the task ahead. We all know it. Doesn't make the losses any less real"
