Clinton: Dems Can Win White House

WASHINGTON — Former President Clinton told Democrats Thursday night it won't take any special magic for them to win the White House again.

"All that has to happen is you have to have a clear vision, a plan for the future, good campaign tactics and fight like the devil," said Clinton. "We need to brand ourselves better. There were too many people who didn't know why we were Democrats except that we were against President Bush's policies."

Clinton spoke at a rally honoring outgoing Democratic Chairman Terry McAuliffe (search).

"He got us out of debt, modernized our technology and fund raising and kept us energized in good times and bad," Clinton said of his friend.

2. We didn't lose by much

As Kerry likes to point out, we didn't lose by much. Just a 100,000 votes or so in OH. (The election was, once again, stolen, but that's for another discussion.) So Bill is right. If Kerry would have blundered just a little less, he would have won by a margin wider than the theft.

4. Welcome to DU!

Wish we could've been playing on a level field; a lot of us worked really hard in the naive belief that the best man would win.
