Beating Something With Nothing?

Mort Kondracke points out that the Democrats have chosen to put forward no meaningful plan for leading the country, intending to rely solely on disaffection with the Republican Congress.

It's possible that the strategy will work, but it's awfully hard to beat something with nothing. Especially when that "nothing" comes across as little more than obstruction and partisan sniping.

Especially during a war. Especially when a number of Democrats -- including the putative leaders of a Democratic Congress -- seem more concerned with the rights and dignity of terrorists than the safety of fellow Americans.
