Will the foaming at the mouth moonbats mean losing for the Democrats?

Richard Cohen, liberal columnist at the Washington Post thinks so. After writing about Colbert really not speaking 'truth to power' as the leftwing of the blogosphere blathered about, he received hate mail I guess like Michelle Malkin receives every day from the clenched fingers of the moonbats. Cohen calls them the "Digital lynch mob":

"The e-mails pulse in my queue, emanating raw hatred. This spells trouble -- not for Bush or, in 2008, the next GOP presidential candidate, but for Democrats. The anger festering on the Democratic left will be taken out on the Democratic middle. (Watch out, Hillary!) I have seen this anger before -- back in the Vietnam War era. That's when the antiwar wing of the Democratic Party helped elect Richard Nixon. In this way, they managed to prolong the very war they so hated.

The hatred is back. I know it's only words now appearing on my computer screen, but the words are so angry, so roiled with rage, that they are the functional equivalent of rocks once so furiously hurled during antiwar demonstrations."

Interesting.
