SCIENTISTS DOUBT EXISTENCE OF DEMOCRATS
The Borowitz Report
Opposition Party Could Be Black Hole, Experts Say
With George W. Bush’s approval ratings plummeting
in recent weeks, the inability on the part of Democrats to capitalize
on [Bush]’s waning fortunes has caused some leading scientists to
postulate
that the Democratic Party may not exist at all.
Dr. Marisa Drazin, a leading scientist who for years has
been questioning the existence of Democrats, said today that what many have
thought to be the Democratic Party may in fact be nothing more than a black
hole.
“When [Bush] loses ten or twelve approval points, one
would normally expect those approval points to go to the opposition party,” Dr.
Drazin said. “But instead, those points have vanished into thin air, leading
one to conclude that the so-called Democratic Party does not exist.”
Theories about the nonexistence of the Democratic Party are
nothing new, said Dr. Drazin, who pointed out that scientists first developed
them during the 1988 presidential campaign of then-Massachusetts Gov. Michael
Dukakis.
While the silence of the Democratic Party in recent weeks
seems to bolster theories of the party’s nonexistence, she said, there are
still some nagging pieces of evidence to the contrary, such as the perpetually
outspoken DNC chairman, former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean.
“I’ve discussed the Howard Dean phenomenon with my
colleagues,” Dr. Drazin said. “And it’s the consensus of the scientific
community that there is no logical explanation for Howard Dean.”

I'm finding it to be true.
I think the Democrats need to come down harshly against the exposure of the corruption of the Rethugs, like Delay's indictment (happy dance) and Frist's SEC investigation. Kick them while they are down. That's how the Rethugs get ahead.
On a more local note, I've been trying to get on the Iowa Democrats' Yahoo group for days now, and NO ONE has gotten back to me.
Are there ANY other Democrats in this state or not?
