I am uninterested in what the crew on the far left of center subject have to say about anything. When two moderate members were banned for leftists posting obnoxiously to them, it lost all credibility. Ok, a discussion between you and Glenn has some interest, but I choose not to post on that subject.

"the correlation, while probably better than random to an extent that would be considered statistically significant, probably isn't a very strong one. " An 80% correlation is statistically significant. It is nearly one standard deviation. It is good news for the country that the socialists will lose power and that the entrepreneurial class should gain power. "if the Democratic party does move so much to the right, there will (despite any fertility gap) be a lot of people on the left of American politics without a party to call home. " Can you imagine a party trying to bridge the gap between their partisan leftwingers that think coordinated firebombing Bush Cheney campaign headquarters across the country is ok and the current right of center moderates like you and myself? I am ROTFLMGO. The democrat party would more naturally solidify as the equivalent of the German Green party and a new centrist party would for from those ejected from the democrat party and the republican moderates that feel left out now. Then you would have the centrist party starting with the balance of power and growing in strength until they alternated between which fringe party ot organize with.
