Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) said Clinton described the ongoing tea party protests against the Democratic agenda as a sign their party was making progress.

Whitehouse quoted Clinton arguing: "The reason the tea-baggers are so inflamed is because we are winning."

They reason they vote for tyranny at midnight on Saturdays is because they’re losing.

They mock and marginalize us because they’re losing.

They may get their health care bill, but their arrogance and dismissive attitude has cost them immeasurable mistrust and anger. As far as I’m concerned, it’s irreparable.

In one year, my attitude about my government has gone from wary skepticism to outright disgust and hopelessness. Unless we see something like a President DeMint in 3 years, I don’t see that ever changing.
