You meant Henry Farrell's post, right? Which is spot on, and even better than the Perlstein bit on which it is based.
I've never felt so discouraged about the Democratic Party as lately, with people disowning Howard Dean, with Dick Durbin disowning himself, with Hillary Clinton muttering about how maybe she's not so pro-choice.
Matt's post isn't in the comment section; that line demarcates the "Continue reading" cut as it appears in the individual archives. The line throws people off.
Matt is good alright.
My opinion is that oil and money will be huge issues. Nobody is happy about rising gas prices, and this is just the start.

Is there anything more futile, I wonder, than writing a long, nuanced analysis in the comment box of a major blog?

Writing the same kind of comment on a blog that is later deleted?

A good writer can pack a lot of futility into a short post.

One of my many gripes with the layout there. I know the line and timestamp mean nothing, but they still jar.
