But Bradley is still right: the Democrats should develop a coherent ideology in order to speak persuasively to that average citizen, who longs for ideas that make sense. Bradley is brilliant. Unfortunately for the Democrats, they are a reflection of the less coherent aspects of American cultural and political life. In my view, their attention span problem will be their undoing. Otherwise, why would they elect a gadfly like Dean as their leader? Do any of them think Dean will try to do the slow, tedious work necessary to build the kind of structure which has served the GOP so well? Nah, he's better at screaming and yelling, acting like a lunatic. No one on the Dem's horizon as far as I can tell has what it takes, except for Bradley. And they don't listen to him. Charisma only takes you a short ways and is for obvious reasons limited to an individual. Come to think of it, I can't name an especially charismatic Dem figure that might help in the short term.
