[lbo-talk] The Dem Strategy: Hard To Starboard!

Driving home from work, I listened to Senator Don Perata of California offer his state-of-the-art opinions on why Arnie won during an NPR interview.

You see, apparently the Dems have gone "too far left" forgetting in their rush to radicalism "Joe Six Pack".

Yes, he said Joe Six pack.

As I down shifted, he developed the theme further. But, there was really no need to listen anymore.

It seems that I've heard the Dems talking about their supposedly excessive left-ward tilt and need to center or right-shift themselves since I nervously picked up the phone to ask Andrea to the senior prom.

Years and years ago.

The Democratic party has no purpose, no momentum and, it appears, no spine.

Can it be reformed or re-spined? Or have we reached one of those moments when long established patterns crumble and new things can be made?
