I was wrong, and it's overdue that I say so.
This has been bugging me for awhile--me, and, I'm sure, no one else. But on Dec. 2, 2006, I posted a diary entitled "Obama is the New Chauncey Gardner". In it, I argued that Democrats were being buffaloed by the mainstream media into making terrible candidate choices in the most important election of our lifetimes.
Obviously, I was flat wrong, and I am delighted to be so. But thinking about why I was wrong led to a realization on my part.
