In plain, simple words, VDH boils down all the argle-bargle about the Democrats'incredible shrinking relevance.
Let's hope they don't listen ...
If the republicans keep pandering and posturing and not believing their own rhetoric, the rat's may get a chance to pull victory from the jaws of defeat. Again.
"let's hope they don't listen"
Why would they listen .. they're too arrogant to believe we know anything.
Let's hope they don't listen ...
With all due respect to the feeling of gratification for a political victory, I hope they DO listen. The United States is fighting itself in many ways.
"When we see Democrats speaking and living like normal folks -- expressing worry that the United States must return to basic education and values to ensure its shaky preeminence in a cutthroat world, talking of one multiracial society united by a rare exceptional culture of the West rather than a salad bowl of competing races and tribes, and apprising the world that we are principled abroad in our support of democratic nations and quite dangerous when attacked -- they will be competitive again."
Great words, and true. Looking past politics, it's what we need.
