There is a strange vibe in DU
Advertisements [?]
and factions are not hardening, have hardened.

Welcome to the NEW DU...

And I know why... we are about to make a hard right turn... never mind that it was that center right part of the coalition that was voted out.

Of course the MEME from the media is the same as the meme from some folks here. If you do not accept the RIGHT OF YOUR PARTY. that is flyover country... their words not mine, the Ds are condemned to permanent minority status.

Well the base is not center right... a large of it is not. So we might be seeing the fracturing not just of one party (The GOP is quite fractured now) but of two...

Hey look on the bright side, if we had the balls to actually modify the system the way it should, allowing for MORE parties, we would have anywhere from three to five major political parties.

But yes, regardless of all polls... we are seeing the beginnings of the shattering of the 2008 coalition. There are ways to stop it, but voters are getting to the sad conclusion that lesser evilism is pissing in the wind.

Oh and regardless of what some Republicans claim and how the leadership of our party acts, the US is NOT a center right country, just a pretty abused one.

And revolts starts in different ways... suffice it to say that the STOP the abuse at airports is connected to this... in some interesting ways. Perhaps the people have had it... yes I can hope

Oh and I expect the hardened factions here to just go La, La, La, I can't hear you, from now on... I also expect the mods to have a lot more fun than they have had...
