    Dems need to see this movie to understand what we did wrong and how the Bushies supresssed our vote. As the NY Times said it can serve as a manual for 2008. We can lick our wounds or we can learn from our mistakes and start winning. So Goes the Nation is a film for Dems who want to start winning again.

    This is a conventional political documentary with a conventional view of what happened in the Buckeye State and why, but it's no less fascinating for all that.

    A clear-eyed and utterly ruthless dissection of the battle for Ohio in the months leading up to the 2004 presidential election.

    So Goes the Nation has no new conspiracy theories, settling instead for a meticulous examination of the two political parties' hellbent voter-seduction strategies, from demographic outreach to slam ads.
