This piece by Mickey Kaus would make sense if he'd never read an Adam Nagourney article in his life, however since I don't think that's the case I'm lead to believe he's just making shit up for the hell of it. 

Nagourney article headlines look more like this short list from the last presidential campaign; see anything approaching Mickey's "GOP always on the ropes" theme?  Me neither.  Besides perhaps this one article, can anyone point to a Nagourney article where Democrats aren't politically inept, divided and totally without hope of ever winning the White House or Congress?   

I think I'm beginning to understand why James Wolcott labeled Kaus the classic example of a "counterintuitive" pundit.
