This could be the last socialist led Democratic coalition in a presidential race. Joe Biden has the entire history of his party since the 30’s riding on his shoulders going into the debate with Palin. They have lost 8 of the last 11 races and party members who just want to be in power and bring home the bacon are not going to keep backing losers. It’s concievable that we could see a big shift in the Democratic party agenda in the wake of this election.
I read that there are already rumblings of this shift occurring in the Rat party. The far-left has been leading them to defeat after defeat for a long time now, and it's only gotten worse since MoveOn, et al have taken over.
Coaches with losing records are often replaced by team owners. We may finally see that happen in the Rat party, as well, after November.
