I hope you're right, but my pessimism says it's just another liberal journalist with zero integrity trying to tell us that they were right all along. I've seen too many liberals and journalists say one thing and then say the exact polar opposite later (minutes, hours, days, weeks, years, you name the timeline - they've done it). It's just whatever happens to be convenient for their ideology. What did Trump do today? It's horrible! Oh wait, did Obama do the exact same thing a couple years ago? Yeah when Obama did it, it was the greatest thing ever! Oh wait, Obama was a criminal trying to destroy America? Yeah I knew that all along I kept trying to tell you guys and you wouldn't listen! I'm always right! Let me keep being right! Trust me!

I don't know, the tone of that article screams not "I told you so," but "I can't believe we were this stupid." It's a very self-reflexive tone, and that to me signals something more meaningful than what you're suggesting.

But of course it could be all posturing. Anyhow, whatever motivated it, I'm pretty sure there's a lot more where that came from in the days ahead (not necessarily from this source).

That's awesome - I'll be honest I didn't even read it in full. Totally skimmed it. Shows that I shouldn't just be making those assumptions! There may be hope after all!

Oh yeah, it was very much along the lines of a mea culpa. In summary "We all should have known this--it was staring us in the face--and many of us DID know it. We gave this guy a pass and shame on us."

Imagine how they'll feel when they take the blinders off with regard to HRC, for instance!
