I though something similar when I heard the Access Hollywood tape. I though he sounded pathetic and clueless, trying to buddy up to Billy Bush, with what he thought were impressive stories of his prowess. Instead he sounded like a first year trying to impress the sixth years.

Hello to Jason Isaacs

I guess the thing about Sullivan is to remember - marriage eguality, torture, his 911 turnaround, all admirable, and and all notwithstanding - at the end of the day he's a fucking Tory!

Andrew Sullivan is blind: It’s elitists who helped give rise to America’s neo-fascist movement A good dismantling of the Andrew Sullivan article. (even more surprising is that it appeared in Salon)

She's clever. An upologetic listener to conservative talk radio Says things that are completely outside the pale of liberal thought. Has lots of strange preoccupations. But even when you disagree sometime you want to stand up and cheer because even if she's wrong she's fighting he timidity and...

@nooly Are liberals too smug? Nah, we're too condescending. Worth a glance.

Anyway, I don't want to disappear down a rabbit hole of arguing and defending a point I'm not even sure I understand myself yet. Let's just say there's something sneery about the whole thing.

Clearly they are overlooking it!

Who says they are pissed off at the rich? Trump is one of the few people to say out loud that NAFTA and TPP are disasters. Free trade is orthodoxy whether you are Democrat or Republican. If I were a blue collar worker who's job was now being done in Mexico I'm sure I might overlook the...

Questions isn't whether it makes them any smarter. Question is does it make them any dumber. And I don't think it does. There's a lot of sneering at Tea Partiers, trump supporters and the like and seconding guessing their reasons for voting how they do.

Well I like Obama, and would have voted for him and still have a yard sign from the first election at home. and He's an impressive guy. Bui in that first election what actual experience had he. Sarah Palin was more qualified than he was.

It's no dumber than voting for Bernie Sanders because unicorns of Hilary because feminism, or Obama because Hope.

It's the notion that all these people are dumb rubes and are being swindled because they are dumb, and assuming they are just too distracted by flags and guns and Jesus to see beyond the bluster... Without really understanding what these people want. These people hate having a black...

I've made better too. Still though - there something off about the notion that these people are voting against their self interest.

It's like being the cooler then thou indie band who just can't believe that no one listens to them ..... and, we're way better to listen to, we have taste and if only people had taste too and didn't listen to crap they'd like us I'm sure of it and radio, radio plays crap all day that that's all...

I'm not sure about this "republican voters are stupid" and "why do they vote against their own self interest". An analyis that depends on they are all thick and mis-informed isn't very helpful - even if for a liberal it's comforting and makes us feel superior. You could easily make the same...

This gets back to the notion that Republican party believed that the people who voted for them actually believed all the free trade guff that they were selling. They didn't, the Hyekian shit was the party elite, your average voter could give a fuck about free trade and has no ideological...

The notion of a political party seems more baked into the constitution than it does here...it's funny that the end result is a much looser system, where here a political party is a club and if they want to turf you out they are free to do so.

Bizarre isn't it.

I wonder is the whole received wisdom about Hilary and super delegates a bit off. Super delegates will back the winner. Imagine a scenario where a candidate goes in trailing on pledged delegates and is handed the race by super delegates - there'd be uproar. They are nice to have, they give the...
