    More of the same

    Just once when I read an article about the Democratic party can it please, please, please not have any of these sentences:

    1) The Democrats have no message.

    2) The Democrats are in disarray.

    3) The Democrats better not gloat.

    4) The public is going to turn on the Democrats.

    5) Polls show the public doesn't trust either party.

    6) The public dont believe the Democrats have the answer

    either.

    7) The Democrats better not think they can enjoy this.

    8) The Democrats caused this fight and they are going to

    be sorry.

    I have no idea why in an age of total GOP political dominance the media insists on attacking the people out of power rather than taking on the people in power. But if they insist on demeaning the Democrats shouldn't they at lease change the script and come up with something new to say.
