I think the recent barage of reports about the Democratic parties demise are part of an orchestrated strategy, and a particularly cynical one at that.

Like certain e-tards, some republican pundits feel simply stating "We won. It's over. Your irrellivant" will help make it so. It's a strategy they apply not only to voters, but countries, world leaders, and multilateral organizations. It's arrogant, needlessly irritating, non productive and will contribute to a back swing of the pendulum in much the same way Newt Ginrich's personality and approach led to his downfall.
