I liked Matt Miller’s column, but I am getting a little concerned about the triumphalism I’m seeing on the left. The polls are still extraordinarily troublesome. It’s true that the Republicans are stumbling in the dark and that they have no cohesive message or ideas for tackling the problems the country is facing. And it’s true that, in time, we’ll look back at the passage of health care reform as the requiem of the Reagan Revolution’s dream. But, we have short-term shit to worry about. If the country is indeed about to vote-in a bunch of crazy movement Republicans, then we’re headed for a world of gridlock and hurt. People need to wake up.
A Note of Caution
