“One of the great strategic blunders in Presidential political history”

Perhaps Barack Obama really is the kind of once-in-a-lifetime candidate who can get away with tossing two large swing states on the scrap heap, and whipping John McCain with one hand tied behind his hopeful back.

But should he fail — and I remain petrified that he might — his campaign’s decision not to find common ground on legitimate primaries in Michigan and Florida will be rightly seen as one of the great strategic blunders in Presidential political history.

See DCMediaGirl’s brilliant — and I do mean brilliantposts here at No Quarter for more on this monumental blunder by not only Obama but also by Howard Dean and the Democratic party.

And Tom Watson’s full article has a great deal of evidence to back up his concerns: “The Two-State Handicap.”
