One of the best movies ever made is 1993’s Groundhog Day because it’s the perfect “getting it right” movie. Bill Murray’s character, Phil, begins as a totally obnoxious egomaniac. However, after being forced to relive the same day hundreds or even thousands of times, he figures out what’s wrong with him and gets it right. It’s a fantastic premise, beautifully done. The Democrats are in a Groundhog Day loop and getting it very, very wrong.
What’s stuck in my mind is Phil’s initial response to his time loop before he realizes that he has the chance to get a life do-over and become a better man. When he realizes he cannot die or cause lasting harm, he becomes wildly reckless.
