The Terrible, No-Good, Very Bad Month for the Left
Dana Mathewson
Here is a wonderful post on Power Line yesterday by contributor Steven Hayward, which was even quoted on the air by Rush Limbaugh. He correctly points out that we should occasionally step back and look at the problems the other side is having, not just get bogged down in our own.

FTA: "Then came the Trayvon Martin incident. But what looked like a by-the-numbers drill for the racial grievance industry has started to collapse beneath certain inconvenient facts that don’t fit the narrative such as Zimmerman’s ethnicity and political party registration (Democratic), eyewitness testimony that Martin was assaulting Zimmerman (perhaps with cause), and Spike Lee advocating vigilantism against Zimmerman, but tweeting an incorrect home address, endangering an innocent elderly couple. Again, while the media lap up the antics of Al Sharpton, it is doubtful most ordinary Americans are impressed with this. More blowback."

The whole article is cheering, to say the least. He ends with the excellent advice "Go ahead, enjoy a smile, have a drink, and then get back in the arena."
Couldn't have said it better myself!
