It is mainly because the GOP E comes from the same class and culture as the DNC E. They live in the same areas, went to the same schools, and have a very similar world view. They truly don’t understand the non elite culture or worldview, and look upon most of us with disdain.
The GOP E doesn’t understand the TEA party people, because they are so different they might as well be from Mars. The article is spot on in that if you want to advance the TEA party agenda, you need someone in the elite to go to bat for you. Otherwise you are not going to get the traction needed to continue. Look at all the GOP freshmen congress men. They have been shunned and shut out by in large because they are to far away from what the Elite believe.
The sad thing is we have and have had a noble class for some time now. If you don’t win converts among them, you will not be able to advance your agenda.
Bump!
