Through everyday common sense, we know that there's strength in unity. The republicans learned this lesson quite some time ago, and it serves them well. Will the democrats ever? Recent events, such as the Lieberman calamity, tells me no.

If we're going to take back anything this November, we're going to have to get a little smarter, people!
