Tom Maguire notes that the New York Times has alerted the "reality based" community that they have little chance at gaining control of the House of Representatives on 2006; notes the Times wasn't pessimistic enough; and observes the progressive progression on the war:

let's take a moment to project the Progressive message progression:

January — "We need to bring the troops home";

May — "We need to bring the troops home";

August — "Bush's announcement that he is bringing some troops home is a cheap political stunt."

Read it all. It's worth your time.
