Democrats, Stop Groveling

As I and many other journalists have observed previously, the contenders are engaged in a frenzy of contrition for mistakes and insufficiently progressive positions past, and while there’s laudable humility (along with plentiful calculation) in that, it sometimes has a desperate ring.

The far left loony progressives. Fuck them. There are a vast majority more of middle of the road, rational progressives. Those are who they should be speaking too.

If they keep telling the truth like they are now, that the Democrat party is fucked already, I might change my mind about them.

Thats the problem with your kind, you take the words of a man from the OPINION page and pretend that its coming directly from the NYT. One person opinion don't mean much
 
Good read. Naturalness has it's advantages. Being PC and getting twisted in knots over what and how to engage diverse groups in all their neatly conformed identity boxes is now old school. Dems need a bull in the china shop, too. Nothing separates the sheep from the goats faster. A nominee can't be all things to all people. Either you love them personally, but hate their policies or love their policies and hate them personally. None of us will ever get EVERYTHING all in one candidate.

And, that's OK. All the citizenry deserve singular clarity on political issues because we are hiring a politician and not be impressed if they eat chicken the same way as everybody, tell a black person they travel with Tabasco in order to "relate", or offer a beer to their spouse in an ad.

Bama was a master at that. It shows weakness...........and that does not command respect. He crossed that line from proper humility to an almost insecurity problem.

This is an OP from the NY Times. Even they are getting nervous this early about Democrats standing a chance. It really is worth a read.

Democrats, Stop Groveling

To triumph in 2020, care less about pleasing all of the people all of the time. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/12/opinion/democrats-2020-gillibrand-booker.html

From the article.

Kirsten Gillibrand confronted a piece of fried chicken in South Carolina over the weekend. She began to eat it with a fork, realized that others around her were using their hands, asked if she should do likewise and ditched the utensils.
