the Dems are curiously silent

when it comes to Iraq and the larger Global War on Terror, not to mention the major domestic issues of immigration and Social Security in their rollout of the plan to "take back" the Congress in the midterm elections. These folks are not ready for prime time because they cannot articulate what they want to do address the major issues confronting America. Instead, they talk about minor stuff such as raising the minimum wage in a time of record growth and employment. It reminds me of Clinton busying himself with small ideas such as "midnight basketball" and the "V-chip"while Bin Laden carried out attacks on our embassies in Africa and on USS Cole.

Here is The Colossus' take.
