Over the past 8 years we have whittled them down to pretty close to their core and their core isn’t going to embrace moderation. They can’t self moderate. They can’t change. They will not change. They will maneuver and look for a way to weasel their way back into power that doesn’t involve changing or moderating so that they can continue to impose their radical values on a country that really doesn’t embrace those values. and if they appear to be moderating, you can be sure, it’s a ruse.

THIS JUST IN --- Democrats Flip Zero Seats in Four Recent Blue State Special Elections
This latest Democrat slaughter occurred after DNC newbie Perez bragged Democrats would show that their resistance to Trump could be translated into electoral victories.
To add insult to injury, the Minnesota, Connecticut, Virginia Democrat losses are the states Hillary (cough) "won" in the 2016 presidential election.
(cue hysterical laugh machine)
Good piece.
It would be nice for “serious” journalists to debate these sensible questions, but that would never happen.
Democrats from, say, 40 years ago would vote Republican before theyd vote for the radicalism that has been embraced by todays Democrat Party
They lost me 50 years ago. My first election I was a Democrat (maybe because my parents were, I no longer remember why). Anyway, it only took four years as an adult to realize the path they were taking was the wrong one.
I was too young and stupid then to understand that the Republicans were just Democrat lite.
They exterminated their center-right and allowed the SJWs in.
There is no way back from that. It will take decades to expunge those people from the ranks.
In the past the dems had a workable system. The center -right almost always got the presidential nod, and most important spots, the controlled left was able to get theirs as long as they played along and dispensed with the “radical pose”.
Somewhere around 2003-07 the balanced finally tipped to the left, and that was that.
Hillary won the popular vote
The Democrats have formidable base. They own blacks 14%, Hispanic 10%, crazy white women 5%, crazy white men 5%, young and stupid 5%. The only reason that they loose is they have terrible turn-out.
Why ooh why did we let that Hildabeast run?
