[lbo-talk] Reflections of a GOP Operative Who Left the Cult

[socialismorbarbarism]

Wojtek S: "What this piece does not answer is the claimed Democrat incompetence
in standing up to the Repug onslaught.  Being in the pockets of rich
donors does not quite cut it...  It hints at a possible explanation
when it says that
a sensible majority can be effectively held hostage by a lunatic few
who do not care about their hostages.  In other words, GOP terrorizing
America."

Or at least terrorizing Democrats. The author actually says this, in a footnote.

"The cowardice is not merely political. During the past ten years, I
have observed that Democrats are actually growing afraid of
Republicans."

But then instead of explaining further, or even giving an anecdote, he
links to a book that seems well worth ignoring.
