History Might Not Be on the Democrats' Side

Well, it's sure not looking that way right now, but it's hard to make predictions, especially about the future (with apologies to Yogi Berra).

From David Harsanyi, at the Federalist, "Democrats: History Is On Our Side. History: Good Luck With That":

Just because you’ve chosen a self-satisfying term to describe your ideology and it happens to contain the word “progress,” [it] doesn’t necessarily mean you’re ideas are more enlightened or destined to move forward.

Ouch!
