Franko,

You are correct about the Democrats’ ineptitude in legislative politics, at least in winning elections in competitive seats.

But it’s the Republican’s hubris, which comes from obersving that Democratic ineptitude, that leads to mistakes like putting Dorworth in their leadership succession line.

And if they’re not careful, the Rs and conservatives will rue the day that they make Dorworth their Speaker.

Dorworth is going to win. And he is going to become Speaker. And it is going to be about the only thing that gives Democrats hope of taking back the House this decade. Their (the democrats’) incompetence in legislative politics is unrivaled.

Somebody out to take Dorworth out of the line of succession for Speaker. He will end up being a huge embarrassment for Republicans. If he ever gets that powerful job, he’ll be likely to end up neck deep in corruption, and might be the tipping point that turns the House back into a Democratic majority.
