Kaus is half right about Hillary's coming train wreck

Kaus is always worth the read, even though I often disagree with his conclusions. Two gems here:
WaPo's David Ignatius laments the Democratic Party's lack of a strong spokesman who can fulfill "the role of an opposition party" in Bush's time of troubles. I'm not sure it's a big dilemma for Democrats (as opposed to for Hillary) if the party remains championless. After all, there already is an effective anti-Bush opposition party in America. It's called the media. We don't need two of them! Alert kf reader G.S. suggests leaderless Democrats take another look at that Amazing Dr. Pollkatz Polling Graphic. The only time Bush's steady polling decline stopped was in 2004, when he actually had some identifiable Democratic champions (Dean, then Kerry) to be set off against. G.S.'s upshot is

Midterm political advice for the Dems: Keep the party face-less through the 2006 races.

It's good to be kingless!

It's nice to see that there is at least one liberal who will admit the blatantly obvious MSM propaganda effort against W.

BTW -- my problem with the post is that he seems to believe the MSM's portrayal of Iraq as a nightmare. He knows it is propaganda, but he believes it anyway!
