Clinton held them together, because he was a huge fund-raiser and was coated with teflon. But their coalition is basically unstable. The only people they can absolutely rely on now are abortion-lovers and sexual perverts. Even blacks have no inherent reason to support them, although they have been supporting them by a towering 90% in the last few elections, because they have given very little in return for this loyalty. The same with Jews and Catholics.

Excellent observation! I agree completely. Clinton was the key to their solidarity in the 90's, no doubt about it. I recall that, in the 80's, they were fractured and disorganized until Clinton came along and saved them.

It takes a long time for a major political party to disintegrate, and there are still tons of left-wingers at all the levers of power in our country, but we may be seeing the beginning of a shift in power that could wipe out the Democrat party or splinter it into Greens, Abortionists, Black Power advocates, Gay-Lesbians, Marxist Socialists, etc., etc.

The complete self-destruction and dis-integration of the party of evil. Now wouldn't THAT be something to behold in our lifetimes!

Please make no mistake about Gephardt: he has to get re-elected. He's only doing what his constituents want *for the moment*. By the end of November he will be back to "normal". He had to gerrymander his district (I live in it) to save his seat....he only wins because a-he brings home the bacon and b-he has very powerful machinery.

After the election they'll be kissy-kissy again.

Great point. I want you to know that I thought about the following statement before making it. I mean it literally. It is not for the purpose of hyperbole.---

I would actually be happier at the sight of the total destruction of the Democrat Party than I was to see the fall of the Berlin wall and the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union.
