his presence in the field would raise the bar for everyone else, improve the content of the debates and change the dynamic of the race.
"Why, my love let - er, columns would practically write themselves!"
And didn't you see what the Dean wrote? We have to wait five years for these ideas. We're just not ready yet to accept such challenges to the orthodox human condition. That is how visionary they are.
Okay, here are two visionary ideas Broder mentions:
1) Republicans have to break with Bush.
2) Running in 2012 instead of 2008.
Now, the first one may seem blindingly obvious to elitist liberal BDS-sufferers like yourself...and the second one may seem blindingly obvious to everyone except those ten guys running for president...and, well, they are. But hey, they're visionary.
(Great post, Ahab.)
If anyone can find a hint of "visionary" Newt's "fresh ideas" and "big ideas" in Broder's column, please report it in comments.
"Democrats suvk!!!" Doesn't that count?
I meant "suck."
It's more visionary the first way.
Let's see. He thinks he's the second coming of Ronald Reagan, and he plans to spend the next four years going after a president named Clinton. Yeah, real visionary, that guy.
Flashbacks are visionary, too, just backwards, so it counts.
Thanks, Tom. As Kathy said of her hilarious post and comments, sometimes the GOP humor kind of writes itself. But I was particularly inspired by the Groucho bit.
Alternate title for this post: "Heart of Newtness."

Well, I did learn the best way to break up with a woman is when she's sick and flat on her back. I guess that way she can't reach for the bread knife.....
Glad you liked it, aimai. It's always nice to see you over here at Tom's.
