“I don’t think this election is any sort of turning point that indicates a sharp leftward shift in the electorate.”
We just elected the most liberal Senator in the Republic, in fact a self-described admirer of Marxist sociopolitical philosophy, as our Liar-in-Chief.
How can you say that this does NOT represent a bee-line toward our nation adopting a distinctly leftist political philosophy?!
Good heavens, did you read my post? I never said Obama wasn’t a leftist. Or that I think he won’t try to shove Marxist policies down our throats.
My point was that the fact he was elected does not mean that voters are any more leftward leaning this year than normal. Just that they were fooled into believing he’s not as radical as he really is.
