...returning to our core values and status as an opposition party with an alternative vision is the only course of action that serves any purpose. If winning elections meant being just like Republicans, then we would effectively become a single party dictatorship and that would be a development which Dems need not legitimize. In such an eventuality, there would be enough myopic, jingoistic, flag-waving chauvinists to cheerlead without our help. What good would winning do us if we had to become the evil we loathed to achieve electoral success? Talk about your Pyrrhic victory.
