It's hard to imagine, all that weight they must carry. How often they've been wrong, on practically everything, as they supported Bush and the Republican Congress the past 4 years. And all the evidence that piles up, from almost everything related to the long-term disaster we're in called Iraq, to Iran, to North Korea, to global warming, to national debt, to bad economic signs, to election results. The rest of the world says they're wrong. Many of them still say the rest of the world is wrong. How very heavy that must be.
They really need a vacation, a long vacation, from blogging. For their own good. It has to be so much harder to blog when you know so much that you've said in the past has been disproved or is in the process of being disproven. It must be heavy. It must be sad. It must be tiring.
So... it's time for America to recommend that many take a break. Instapundit, time to put away the blog for a few months. Althouse, time to write a book or something. Power Line... bon voyage. Take a break. Lift the weight.
Then I realized what you are saying above. They really are ALL WRONG. They really don't get it. Their worldview has been disproven. And yet they still cling to it.
It's a nice and scary feeling at the same time...to know how right you were, while knowing that no one listened to you when it mattered.
Please don't get too excited:

I kinda have one foot in each world (not as a centrist, but as a libertarian-ish dem), and as bad as some Republican decisions have been, I don't think Democrat rule in this atmosphere will be any better - especially with the big D "leadership" as it is.
The new era doesn't look good so far. Murtha for majority leader? and Alan Mollohan... - c'mon, what are they thinking? If I were setting odds in Vegas, I'd favor the Republicans in '08.
