A site for and about the Democratic Party and it's politics (in the spirit of DKos-- I'm an unapolegetic Kossack myself) with the objective of helping to elect as many Democrats as possible in both this year and '08. For and about includes history and how we got here so we can figure out the road map out. And that covers a lot of ground. Add your two cent's worth. No refunds.Be advised this is very much a pro Wes Clark site.

On Newt.......Is He Back?




Or did he ever really go away? The NY Times has an extensive look at Newt Gingrich, former auther of the Republican Revolution, former creator of the Contract With America, former House Speaker -- you get the picture -- he has a lot of formers on his resume. Which may well be part of his problem. The article outlines an arguably quite brilliant idea factory with the attention span of, well, a newt. But right now his party is lost in the wilderness, bereft of idea and a shrinking geographic and demographic base. And that may well breath new life into Newts career. But probably not --- there is a reason he flamed out as House Speaker.
Worth a read.....
