Follow-up on the coming GOP implosion

Several comments on my recent "GOP about to implode" post, both here and in my Kos diary, noted that internal GOP tensions are not enough for Republicans to lose elections - the Democrats need to come up with a coherent vision of what they want to do.

To those comments, I say this: ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.  By only talking about what I see as a serious problem inside the GOP, I certainly didn't intend to absolve the Dems of the need to explain where they want this country to go (we've been pushing that idea on this blog for some time, as our readers know).  There's just so much one can do in one post. 

Thanks to all for your thoughtful commentary.
