Analysis 0
From Andrew Sullivan’s live blog of the returns (emphasis added):
Me, I’m not predicting anything. I’m too worked up about this election, and too burned from the theft of the 2000 election and the disappointment of the 2004 election, the first election in which I ever manned a phone bank, to rejoice until everything is signed and sealed.
But I, as this post I made last week implies, I think his analysis is spot on.
The Republican Party, the party that freed the slaves, has become the party the frayed the sleeves.
And, with luck, the American people have finally figured out that it is an empty shell, a banging cymbal, a sound signifying nothing, that hath not love, nor hope, nor charity.
