On the bright side the Republicans can take solace in the fact that they are not losing their best and brightest. A chance for real moderate conservatives who put America first over party to get in? One can hope.

As opposed to Ney, Cunningham, Foley, Safavian, Abramoff... This is a game you don't want to play. It only brings attention to the corruption of your own heroes.

Dems the Breaks -- it has already been proven that the incompetence lies with the voters. They are guilty of being too gullible and naive. The last 6 years have been an education for the voters that is unlikely to make them more disposed to vote Republican. If as you say incompetence disqualifies a candidate, how did GWB get elected?

Bush has dug the 2008 GOP grave and they are just falling into it one by one. Why do they think they are retiring ..because they know they can't win .... the party if over boys.

You hillaryclinton.com zombies are starting to get on my nerves. I have voted Dem all my life, but I'm not deluded into thinking that the Democratic party has always been the answer to America's problems. At this point in time, yes it is; the damage to our country is great after years of Republican indifference to the well being of everyday Americans. Any of the current democratic candidates would improve the situation, and I'm not sure that Clinton is the best of the lot. Let's hold off on the coronation for a while and see what develops.

It won't be a martini, but champagne, that's what you use to celebrate. At least Hillary will be giving her concession speech around 10:00pm eastern - so we won't have to stay up too late, and will be fresh for work in the morning. You welfare queen supporters of Hillary can sleep in the next morning (mourning?), and then try to sober up in the afternoon.

If as you say incompetence disqualifies a candidate, how did GWB get elected?

I would imagine because the people that voted looked at the alternatives to GB, and saw a greater degree of incompetence.

You see, there are degrees to incompetence. Everyone is afflicted to some level. It would appear that the Democrats have it worse then the Republicans. And, there is a difference to being incompetent, which the Republicans seem to be at times, and insane, which seems to be a constant state for the Democrats.

And, nuanced, never ever call the voters gullible or naive. Seems to be a real tenet of the left to do that. Just because you don't agree with how someone votes, it doesn't give you the right to question their intelligence. You need to get over yourself if you really do think that way.

Besides, this is the same shell game Hillary, Edwards, Biden, and Dodd, are trying to pull - "Oh, the mean evil Republicans lied to us about the intel information, thats why we voted for the war - we should have questioned it more, but we were naive and gullible.". Give me a break. These are not stupid people, frankly they are all very intelligent. Just because you're insane like these people are, it doesn't make you not intelligent.

Dems the Breaks -- neither gullible or naive means unintelligent; don't put words in my mouth. Often very intelligent people are the most gullible -- just ask the scam artists. Intelligent people who have been fooled learn by their mistakes and are less likely to be fooled again, thus that is why I feel the voters are less likely to be fooled again. Only idiots don't learn from their mistakes and keep swallowing as gospel truth the lies from people who have been proven to be serial liars. Take a look in the mirror.

Interesting that you did not defend GWB's competence.
