Posted by SLRT on Fri Dec 12 16:23:36 2014, in response to Democrats quickly losing their chances for 2016 and 2018, posted by orange blossom special on Fri Dec 12 15:06:38 2014. Seriously, they haven't [yet] learned the hard lesson the Republicans learned after the Goldwater debacle in 1964. The GOP realized they weren't going to win another Presidential election if they kept on keeping on. So they reformed and Nixon won in 1968 against a decent man (Humphrey) and again in 1972 because the Dems put up a man (McGovern) way out of the mainstream, even for the Viet Nam war era.Right now, what I hear from the Democrats and especially the Progressive wing is that they were beaten bloody because they weren't LEFTIST ENOUGH. This is part of the "losing is really winning" school. Keep thinking that way, Guys. Elizabeth Warren will be a shoo-in in two years, right? |
