Has Dana Milbank turned to the dark side?

Dana Milbank, one of the best Washington Post reporters and a frequent critic of the Bush administration, has in the last ten days been lashing out at Democratic activists and labeling them "wingnuts." He also had the only Washington Post article on Conyer's hearing on the Downing Street memos holding it up as a game by powerless funny Democrats and their idiotic extremist supporters.

What has happened? The only clue is that Dana Milbank says he has been the subject of many abusive calls and emails which he felt was organized by the 300,000 strong Democrats.com (not affiliated with the Democratic party.) Abusive calls and emails are not the way to win friends gang. I will say abusive articles aimed at your supporters are also not the way to make friends either Dana.
