Could it be true? Are the Democrats finally starting to recognize that they have a massive political asset within their midst? (courtesy Taegan Goddard's Political Wire):

Democrats Look To Clinton For Strategy Bill Clinton will speak at the House Democratic retreat this weekend "designed to help the minority party plot strategy and design a message for the 108th Congress," Roll Call reports. "Thursday's sessions will focus on Democratic electoral losses in 2002 and how the party can win in the future." On the Senate side, The Hill says "a group of Democratic senators organized" by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) "has begun meeting regularly in an attempt to shape a progressive agenda and message after their party's losses in the midterm election."

It's about f'n time these guys realize that they are the opposition party and should start acting like it. We can only hope they get their act together before 2004.
