[democrats] Have Got To Start Winning Elections.

The People Who Are Rising, They're Super Ambitious. They Have Relationships With People Above Them. They Have Relationships, Hierarchical, Sort Of People Below Them. A Lot Of People Do Not Have Relationships Horizontally. And There's A Lot Of People Who Reach High Political Offices, But Who Are Weirdly Lonely, Weirdly Lacking In Intimacy Skills.

The Democrats Are Now An Upscale Party.

I Think This Was As Good A Democratic Convention [ This Was My 24th Convention] As I Have Seen Since The 1976 Convention, Which Nominated Jimmy Carter.i Just Thought It Was A Spectacularly Successful Convention. I Don't Think Hillary Clinton's Speech Was Spectacular, But I Don't Think She's A Spectacular Speaker.

The Reality Is That The Republicans Twice Had Mitt Romney As A Potential Nominee. They Chose Him In 2008 - 2012. In 2008 And 2012, He Had Been The Most Get Tough On Illegal Immigrants, On Undocumented Immigrants, Illegals, As He Called Them, Accused John Mccain Of Wanting To Give Them Social Security Checks, Accused Mike Huckabee Selling Out To Them With The Dream Act In Arkansas, Was Really The Most Strident.

The Democrats Have This High Level Of Expectation Of What Government Can Do.
