Democrats, welcome to your very own tea-party By Megan McArdle August 2 at 2:39 PM ...Unfortunately for Democrats, there is one important way in which progressives aren’t like the tea party at all: They dominate only a thin geographic slice of the country. In a system tilted toward representing geography rather than population density, that leaves Democrats more dependent than Republicans on swing districts that won’t want to go where Democrats seem to be heading. So there’s a real risk that the progressive left’s rise may mirror the tea party in another important way: It will end up handing more power to the most extreme and intransigent elements of the Republican right. washingtonpost.com
