Missing the 19th Century

...which may have been too modern for them...
  • GOP in dwindling demographic niche and why outreach hasn't been working for them.
    Instead of asking “Why don’t more blacks, Latinos, women, etc., join us?”, Republicans should ask “How are we failing to address the concerns of blacks, Latinos, women, etc., so that more of them will want to join us?” That’s a question that Republicans can’t ask, because answering would mean changing their tone and their policies. Republicans can’t do that without having the very same rage they encouraged in their base turned against them.
    Republic of T, of course.
  • Someone who tweeted foolish things about women's suffrage and individual freedom being incompatible, probably because assuming "women" not equal to "individual." There are times when I can understand the desire of some women to have as little to do with men as humanly possible.  Noli Irritare Leones.  (With all this misogyny, shouldn't monasteries be thriving?)
  • [ETA] Someone ignorant who believes women should homeschool children and not waste time working.  This is one of the reasons I couldn't care less about his stance on drugs.
