Kristof to NYT Readers: Dems Need to Reposition Themselves With the Little People
2004-11-03
Why Democrats lose in middle America
In the aftermath of the civil war that the United States has just fought, one result is clear: The Democratic Party's first priority should be to reconnect with the American heartland.
Yep. That county map's pretty red, isn't it? What do you suggest, Nick?
John Kerry's supporters should be feeling wretched about the millions of farmers, factory workers and waitresses who ended up voting - utterly against their own interests - for Republican candidates.
Stupid Little People!
Must be time to Educate™ them, huh? Okay. Go wag your finger in their faces and tell them where they're wrong.
Won't somebody think of the children(TM)?
One of the Republican Party's major successes over the last few decades has been to persuade many of the working poor to vote for tax breaks for billionaires.
He's right, y'know? The Publicans even went so far as to send the little people checks...
Stupid sheeple, what do they know?
