Only 6% of the people between the ages of 18-24 were paying attention to the SCOTUS decision.
hollywood + academia = dead America
Ron Brownstein is a brown shirt leftist.
Who'da thunk.
Just because you no longer are able to MAKE someone else pay for your contraceptives doesn’t mean that you don’t have access to said contraceptives. Are ‘the people’ really that stupid?
Over-confidence is a great thing for your enemy to have right before you beat the living snot out of ‘em.
When Liberal policies fail, and they will, the Left will blame the opposition. Just name one country that has returned to prosperity after embracing Command and Control policies.
We’ll just have tales to tell our grandchildren.
Democrats are confident because they run the whole political system and are using it against their enemies with impunity.
The IRS stacked the vote for Barack Obama in 2012.
Watch for a repeat performance in 2014.
The Dems feel down because things are going against them so its up to the #1 Dem cheerleader and butt-kisser in the MSM, Ron Browstein, to cheer them up with an article about how they will win in the long run.
Then its time to say “sayonara”...Let them keep their steaming piles.
I would alter this slightly by saying it pivots not about trust in science but on trust in scientists. But even that's not quite right. It really comes down to realizing that "global warming" is a political agenda masquerading as a scientific issue and refusing to pretend otherwise. As an engineer I loves me some science but I knew global warming was a crock from the get go.

You are pretty close. I have repeatedly posted that Marxist education and Marxist Media have destroyed America.
The REelection of Obumbo said it all.
As Lenin said about America: “It will fall like an overripe fruit into our hands.”
Yes, they are.
How is that different? The job of the young is to get jobs, find mates, marry and create families. It’s not 1968. Most young people won’t get political until Washington starts touching their lives in ways they don’t like. Like what happened with us...
And stupid older people? Do you really want that group getting ‘more involved’? God help us....
The crux of the matter is whether people will vote cultural or economic issues. In 1992 the GOP bet on culture (which was solidly with us) and the Dems on economics (which was somewhat with them). We lost.
When the GOP pivoted to economic (and by extension good government) issues in 1994 we won.
If the Dems are betting on cultural issues and not economics, history is against them. If they turn out to be right, history is against all of us.
We have entered the era of tribal politics. In the long term the Dems will be the permanent majority party. Demography is destiny.
“When the GOP pivoted to economic (and by extension good government) issues in 1994 we won.”
If Romney had run a hard hitting campaign on economic issues. Instead he had no message and allowed Obama to run define the campaign as “war on women”.
Actually the Republicans in 2012 could have run a winning campaign on the “end Obamacare” theme but since they nominated the architect of Obamacare as their standard bearer they had no credibility on healthcare.
This writer forgets the spiritual aspect of American life.
Jesus isn’t a Republican, but he isn’t a Democrat either. And the segment of society that embraces Judeo-Christian ethics is on the CORRECT side of history.
For everyone else, there is hell to pay, literally and figuratively.
Ultimately the dems will swamp us as demographic and cultural changes take hold. They only need to wait 4 or 5 more years and they’ll have a permanent chokehold on the Senate as they do the White House.
