Will the Democrats Ever Learn?

Well apparently at the Coretta King funeral today, the speakers decided to take some pot shots at the policies of President Bush instead of focusing on the life of Coretta King. Just a few years ago, the Democrats decided to make the funeral of Senator Paul Wellstone into a political rally and end result was another Republican in the Senate chamber. While the speeches by President Carter and Rev. Joseph Lowery may not have a negative effect on one particular race like the Wellstone fiasco, I seriously doubt that their comments are going to win any additional Democratic votes. To think, the Republican Party has not been this vulnerable in years, yet the Democrats seem to be openly trying to remain the minority party.
