The truth? They can't handle the truth
On Sunday, Mr. Frum wrote on his website, FrumForum, that health-care reform had been a debacle for the Republican party, saying they'd ?suffered their most crushing legislative defeat since the 1960s.?
?A huge part of the blame for today's disaster attaches to conservatives and Republicans ourselves,? he wrote. ?At the beginning of this process we made a strategic decision: unlike, say, Democrats in 2001 when President Bush proposed his first tax cut, we would make no deal with the administration. No negotiations, no compromise, nothing.?
While Republicans predicted months ago that health-care reform would be Mr. Obama's ?Waterloo,? Mr. Frum wrote: ?It's Waterloo all right: ours.?
