Re: Even Barney Frank Gets It By: Mark Steyn The Corner . . . but Patrick Kennedy doesn't: <<< Kennedy's son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) said Democrats have to understand that they've entered a different era -- and that they can't just assume that voters will be with them. “It’s like in Roman times, they’d be trotted out to the coliseum and the lions would be brought out,” Kennedy said Tuesday night. “I mean, they’re wanting blood and they’re not getting it so they want to protest." >>> This is the laziest trope in the Democrat-media book. When the electorate repudiates the Republicans, as in 2008, they're voting for hope and change and raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. But, when the electorate repudiates the Democrats, as they did last night, then they're seething and vicious and lashing out and so irrational they can't even calculate their own best interest, which is to keep voting for the guy with "D" after his name. When suburban Massachusetts is your idea of Bitter Clinger Central, you may want to rethink your analysis. corner.nationalreview.com
