Do Democrats get the votes of the dead through
"iterative evolution?" Or is that just a fancy

The analysis of fossil DNA from the previous flightless version of the bird shows that it was a genetically distinct species from the current version. In other words, conditions on the island led to the separate evolution of two similar species at different times.

Their editor softened it a bit. The article originally stated that the bird evolved into a fish so that it would drown then afterward evolved in a bird again. After all, survival of the fittest you know.
