The Democrat Party is lurching ever further to the left and embracing socialism. The numbskulls who are running for their party's presidential nomination, along with congressional candidates, seem to think socialism is the key to power in Texas.
They have a big shock coming if they do.
Richard Greene has an excellent opinion piece on this in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
He begins it with:
All the speculation about Tarrant County and Texas transforming to Democratic control is nonsense, and some prominent leaders of the party on the left have recently and fearfully declared why that’s not going to happen.
As voters approach primary elections a week from Tuesday, Democrats should think about their choices.
If their candidate wins because he or she is clinging to the coattails of polling favorite and self-described socialist Bernie Sanders, then that “winner” will be easy pickings for the Republican alternatives on the November ballot.
That may be true of any local Democrat seeking state or federal office no matter which of the presidential contenders they may be aligned with among the entire field.
As long as the far-left policies that have dominated the presidential contest continue to develop to more and more extreme positions, those seeking to join the Texas Legislature or the Texas delegation in the U. S. Congress who embrace those policies will all lose.
And, Greene has some juicy tidbits of quotes from some prominent Democrats:
The legendary master of knowing the public mind who steered Bill Clinton from Arkansas obscurity into two terms in the White House, James Carville, has lately shown up in the national media sounding the alarm.
“This party needs to wake up and talk about things that are relevant to people,” Carville cried out in his MSNBC appearance. “We can’t act like this is going well.”
He was clearly frustrated that Elizabeth Warren had “decided to chase Bernie’s left tail all over the country” – a reference to the self-declared socialist Bernie Sanders, who’s appealing to crowds cheering for free stuff.
When Sanders responded by calling Carville a “hack,” his comeback was to say, “at least I’m not a communist.”
Then there is long-time NBC Democratic partisan Chris Matthews analyzing the results of the New Hampshire debate. “The issue of that campaign, it is that word, socialism. … Some people like it, younger people like it. … I’ve seen what socialism is like, I don’t like it. OK, it’s not only not free, it doesn’t frickin’ work.”To read more, go here.
