I can imagine what Scoop would think of today's Democratic Party.

On a range of issues HMJ would have been outraged, including and especially on those relating to values and opinions on our military. Of course, it is now a different time twenty+ years past his death. But the Demo party has left behind many, many folks that Scoop represented well in Washington State. IMO Rossi now speaks for a vast majority of them.

I had lunch with Rossi last February. I mentioned to him that "Scoop Jackson" Democrats and "Dan Evans" Republicans occupy much of the same ideological turf. If you're Catholic or Jewish, you'll be a "Scoop Jackson" Democrat while if you're a Protestant, you'll be a "Dan Evans" Republican. Dino agreed, pointing out that his Catholic father shared his values and was a lifelong "Scoop Jackson" Democrat.
