The Peter Principle

David W. Rushing / -- The Peter Principle maintains that there are some people who rise to their highest level of incompetence in life before ultimately failing dramatically.

There are a few who believe this particular principle is only a terrible falsehood and has never actually existed.

But I contend that one need only examine the recent history of the Democratic Party to see that the Peter Principle is alive and well.
