It should be about correct grammar.
The 1980 election drove the final stake into the heart of the Democrat Party. The old party actually died in 1968 with the rejection of the New Deal/Great Society. With that rejection, the old Democratic coalition of the mid-20th Century came unglued. What it morphed into was the New Democrat Party, which stands for nothing (but which stands against a lot of things, mainly decent things), but is an amalgamation of amoral relativists, labor goons, crackheads, perverts, power lusters, malcontents, baby-killers, cornholers, disease-carriers, nihilists, appeasers, shiftless "victims", sociopaths, race-baiters, radical atheists, journalists, and other ne'er-do-wells of assorted social pathologies. And it represents about 48% of the electorate.
That just about sums it up. Bravo!
