98. You want history. Okay, isn't Kerry a DLC'er?
And Clinton? And all those DLC Senators. Seems to me they all won elections. So I'm trying to figure out how it is that the blame for 6 Congressional election losses in a row falls on the candidates that have won elections.

Y'know the Democrats controlled Congress for a whole lot of years. Of course a bunch of those years, a substantial portion of the Democrats majority were southern Democrats who make the average DLCer look like Mao. That's history too.

And as for whether Hart could've defeated Reagan? Well, we'll never know that. But what the history books tell us is that he couldn't attract enough support from Democrats to win the nomination. So its those doggone Democrats fault. If we could only get rid of them and the repubs everything would be peachy.
