GravatarHow Karl Rove lost a generation of Republicans
By James Carville
.
.
A late July poll for Democracy Corps, a non-profit polling company, shows that a generic Democratic presidential candidate now wins voters under 30 years old by 32 percentage points. The Republican lead among younger white non-college-educated men, who supported President George W. Bush by a margin of 19 percentage points three years ago, has shrunk to 2 percentage points. Ideological divisions between the Republican party and young voters are growing. Young voters generally favour larger government providing more services, 68 per cent to 28 per cent. On every issue, from the budget to national security, young voters responded overwhelmingly that Democrats would do a better job in government.


whigs...

He has been assistant to the president, senior advisor and deputy chief of staff. Mr Rove was the architect of social security reform, immigration, the hiring and firing of justice department officials and the placement of literally thousands of ideologically driven buffoons throughout the US government. As deputy chief of staff he was also responsible for handling the White House post-Katrina reconstruction efforts. On these actions, history has already rendered its judgment on Mr Rove. And, as we say in Louisiana, “it ain’t pretty”.

GravatarLearn from the fall of Rome, US warned
By Jeremy Grant in Washington

The US government is on a ‘burning platform’ of unsustainable policies and practices with fiscal deficits, chronic healthcare underfunding, immigration and overseas military commitments threatening a crisis if action is not taken soon, the country’s top government inspector has warned.

David Walker, comptroller general of the US, issued the unusually downbeat assessment of his country’s future in a report that lays out what he called “chilling long-term simulations”.

These include “dramatic” tax rises, slashed government services and the large-scale dumping by foreign governments of holdings of US debt.

Drawing parallels with the end of the Roman empire, Mr Walker warned there were “striking similarities” between America’s current situation and the factors that brought down Rome, including “declining moral values and political civility at home, an over-confident and over-extended military in foreign lands and fiscal irresponsibility by the central government”.
.
.
Mr Walker’s views carry weight because he is a non-partisan figure in charge of the Government Accountability Office, often described as the investigative arm of the US Congress.

Danielson is a band from Clarksboro, New Jersey that plays a quirky blend of indie pop and gospel music. The group consists of frontman Daniel Smith and a number of various artists with whom he collaborates. He has also released solo work as Brother Danielson.

When joined by his family the band is known as Danielson Famile, whose members have included Smith; his "siblings Andrew, David, Megan, and Rachel; wife Elin; friends Christian & Melissa Palladino; [and] daughter Lilly"[1]. Sufjan Stevens has also recorded and performed with the group.

The band is known for its squeaky falsetto vocals, innovative musical arrangements, and matching nurse uniforms, "that act, according to Daniel, as 'visual reminders of the spiritual and emotional healing taking place' within audience members."[2] During some performances Smith has "worn a nine-foot tall, hand-made nine-fruit tree to 'bear the good fruit,'"[3] in reference to the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

GravatarDuring a debate with DLC chairman Harold Ford Jr. on Meet the Press this morning, Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas made this fallacious argument for why candidates for their party should act like "proud Democrats":

MR. MOULITSAS: No, no, no. You’re talking about bringing the, you know, appealing to the vast majority of the American public. Bill Clinton never won with 50 percent plus one of the votes.

REP. FORD: But he was president twice. I’ll take his record any day of the week.

MR. MOULITSAS: The most, the most talented—the most talented politician of our era, incredible political talent, wasn’t able to beat—to win 50 percent of the American vote. Now, last year in 2006, running as strong unapologetic muscular Democrats, Democrats brought in 56 percent of the vote. We are appealing to the mainstream. We brought in independents in droves, and it wasn’t just George Bush.

In short, Moulitsas is claiming that being "strong unapologetic muscular Democrats" outperforms Clinton's DLC-style triangulation at the polls. But his evidence is nonsense. Clinton never received fifty percent of the popular vote because Ross Perot ran as a third party candidate in 1992 and 1996. Democratic Congressional candidates didn't face a major third party challenge in 2006. It's apples and oranges.

Moreover, even if the comparison were valid, causality often runs the other direction -- candidates are more likely to run as strong partisans in favorable political environments and to move toward the center in unfavorable environments. For instance, the results of the 1994 election were obviously part of the reason that Clinton tacked toward the center. So we can't conclude much of anything from observing that "strong" Democrats do better than triangulators.

Evidence is beside the point anyway. This is ideological agitprop -- just like the absurd claim that Republicans lost in 2006 because they were insufficiently conservative.

If she was in the military, they'd have just told her they wanted their two weeks back:

The first soldier starts in again. 'My husband was injured here. He hit an improvised explosive device. He already had a spinal injury. The blast shook out the plates. He's home now and has serious issues adapting. But I'm not allowed to go back home to see him. If I wanted to see him I'd have to take leave time (two weeks). And the army counts it.'

The Democrats' responses to Rove's departure show why he is right. This is Barack Obama:

Karl Rove was an architect of a political strategy that has left the country more divided, the special interests more powerful, and the American people more shut out from their government than any time in memory. But to build a new kind of politics, it will take more than the departure of a man or even an Administration that constructed the old--it will take a movement of everyday Americans committed to changing Washington and reclaiming their government.

And here's the lovely and talented one:

John Edwards today released the following statement in reaction to President Bush's announcement that his senior advisor, Karl Rove, will resign at the end of the month:

"Goodbye, good riddance."

Amazing. These guys want to be president of the United States, and they don't realize how it diminishes them when they issue denunciations of the deputy chief of staff. Mrs. Clinton, as far as we can tell, has not made that mistake. Simply by keeping her opinion to herself, she looks like the only serious candidate among the Democrats.

GravatarIt's amazing that trolls such as myself still think that expressing "concern" accomplishes anything.


GravatarCan I be your minion?

Sure!!

I'm actually a pretty good boss.


GravatarI rather liked Edwards' comment on Rove.


GravatarIn an ABCNews.com blog entry erroneously titled "Elizabeth Edwards Unplugged" (unplugged actually means "without amplification," not "uninhibited"), reporter Sunlen Miller summarizes The Progressive's newly published interview with Mrs. Edwards:

Mrs. Edwards praised her husband for apologizing for his vote in favor of the Iraq War, and questioned Senator Hillary Clinton's, D-N.Y., for not doing the same.

"She even, in the New Hampshire debate said, 'I made a mistake.' People are looking for a mea culpa from her. And when she buried a line like that--I give her credit for saying that--but when she buries that line . . . we're electing a leader of the free world, and just like the votes on this last funding bill, we're looking for a leader," Edwards contended.

And while Senator Barack Obama, D-Ill., was in the Illinois state legislature and not the Senate in 2003, Mrs. Edwards equally questioned his motives.

"Obama gives a speech that's likely to be extraordinarily popular in his home district," Edwards said, "and then comes to the Senate and votes for funding . . . so you are going to get people behaving in a holier-than-thou way."

So Mrs. Edwards faults Obama for being "holier-than-thou" when he has (by her lights) been right all along, but she herself is holier-than-thou on behalf of her husband, an enthusiastic war supporter five years ago, because he has repudiated his former view with more gusto than Mrs. Clinton has hers.

This is quite simply not a coherent position. The only explanation is that Mrs. Edwards is defending Mr. Edwards's position--and in the process making herself look ridiculous--simply because he is her husband. Which is sort of sweet, actually. None of this feminist independent-mindedness for Elizabeth Edwards.

"When the Senate reconvenes in September, I fully support your committees working expeditiously together and in a bipartisan manner to develop a longer-term statutory change that better serves American national security interests and comports with the Constitution and proper judicial and congressional oversight."

maybe. i think they've managed to merge polling and fundraising. it sure seems like within days of them caving on each issue, we get a fundraising call and tell the poor person calling we won't give them shit until they get some spine. invariably, the callers tell us they hear the same thing over and over.


GravatarGood news: Old Flat Earth himself was on Kneel Conan today. He's sure, sure, this time that in another FU, progress will be made in Iraq. It all depends on Betrayus because, in Friedman's view, Bush has no credibility.

It goes without saying that Kneel didn't mention that Friedman has no credibility either.


GravatarThis is like saying the market makes decisions.

That's just silly. The market is not a sentient being.

Harry Reid's first loyalty has to be to the voters of Nevada who put him there. If they're not happy with the job he's doing, they'll replace him.

If you're not happy with the job Harry Reid is doing as majority leader, you can communicate with your own senators in an attempt to get someone else installed as majority leader. But the person who has to care about what you think is the person you actually get to vote for, not Harry Reid.

GravatarStephanopoulos suggested instead that the response to Kucinich merely represents the Democratic Party's "liberal base" and that the "centrists" of the Democratic Leadership Council under Howard Ford believe that Kucinich's ideas "could hurt the party."

Stephanopoulos quoted Ford as saying, "'George W. Bush is handing us Democrats our Hoover moment'" and told Kucinich, "They believe that if the party follows your path, they're going to blow this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."


Gravatar"You have to keep in mind that the center has shifted in our politics," Kucinich responded, smiling. "I'm really at the center, and all the other candidates are to the right of me. And they're to the right of the American people."

"The Democratic Leadership Council's agenda is indistinguishable from the Republican Neoconservative agenda," he went on. "They want to continue to stay in Iraq. They reject the idea of a not-for-profit health care system. ... These analysts are ... trying to keep a politics that really helps support a privileged few at the expense of the many. So I'm the candidate of the people."

Stephanopoulos then switched to the topic of Iraq, asking, "What is the plan after you bring the troops home?"
