He said the party is desperately in need of a compelling narrative to tell voters, rather than the “litany of issues” the party stands for now.
He said Mr. Bush and Republicans presented just such a story: “These guys had a narrative we’re going to protect you from the terrorists in Tikrit and from the homos in Hollywood. That’s it,” he said. “I think we could elect somebody from Beverly Hills if they had some compelling narrative to tell people about what the country is.”
The democrats did have a narrative – Bush is an idiot and anyone who votes for him is a retard. Again, not compelling. I don’t think the Democrats will ever be able to reconcile the rabid secularists with Christians. The “big tent” just isn’t that big.
Tents can get pretty big — but the lip-biters have to be in a decided minority (like rationalist libertarians who often vote R) and willing to vote tactically along with people they don’t particularly respect.
The D party isn’t showing much sign of that.
The “mad dog” of CNN is one of those responsible for this disaster…we’ll see if this is a genuine conversion…doubtful.
The Democratic Party has to drop the rabid secularists, or they will never win another presidential election in this country. It’s just that simple. Unfortunately, they’re showing no sign that they’re willing to do this. Oh well. I guess they’ll fade into extinction, which they must prefer.
