[Note: I said that Not Paul Begala was not the insider cited below, and indeed, this evening NPB has some thoughts on the exchange himself.]
I liked the fight in the previous post between the Beltway insider and the Deaniac (for the record, Not Paul Begala is Gephardt-affiliated and will always rip on the SWarms instinctively) and I see this as a foreshadow of things to come: Wait till we get to a Congress with everybody taking credit for why we won! It was the ____!
For instance:
- “It was the netroots that pushed the party…”
- “It was the moderate stance he/she took that proved he/she was independent…”
- “It was their position on choice that proved the R was too extreme…”
- “The cash infusion saved our ass while the RNC was carpertbombing us, thank you Rahm/Schumer, and F you Dean.”
- “The 50-statere program proved invaluable in gathering volunteers, poll watchers, low dollar donors that made the difference.”
- “They attacked on the war relentlessly and won, pull out!”
All while NPB sits back with a knowing smile, sippin’ on gin and juice, laid back, with his mind on the real answer: It was the ____!
