That’s Right, Democrats…

…you lost because the Democrat Party wasn’t radical enough.

This’ll fix it.

Oh, yes it will.

(Seriously – who else could make Deb Wasserman Schultz look like a moderate?)

    Perhaps the most heartening thing about the election results is that we will be spared from any possibility of congressman-for-life Ellison’s elevation to the Supreme Court.

    It will be very good news for MNDFL because it will bring in more national money to pay for outstate electorate re-education to stem the rising Republican menace in MN. The near loss of the state to Trump has got the Union people I know suffused with fear – of course they blame it on Gov Walker.

    Hakim X’s history with FaraKKKHan will be soon be resurrected, and not a minute too soon.

    It’s time the left’s legacy of racial hate, of anti-Semitism, of cultural divide is rubbed all up in their feral little rat snouts. And let’s just toss in Hakim’s past support of the Muslim Brotherhood and HAMAS for good measure, shall we?

    I, for one, am ecstatic, jubilant, euphorically happy at the prospect of Hakim X Ellison taking up the rainbow hood and head chopping Buck knife of the reprobate Democrat party.

    I suppose that the appointment of Ellison to DNC chair is intended to shore up the all-important Black vote for the Dems. Ellison is not the kind of person who is going to convince independents and GOP leaners to pull the lever for the D’s. The Dems already control the big Urban areas.
    A big part of the DNC chair’s job is fundraising. Ellison is going to go to Florida and New York and get the big dollar men and women to open their wallets?
    If the media was honest, Ellison would never make it as DNC chair. His background is too sketchy. No one seems to know exactly what kind of Muslim Ellison is.

    Ellison ain’t gonna fix this. He doesn’t even want to fix this:

    “Hillary lost rural America 3 to 1,” said one Democratic insider, granted anonymity to speak candidly about the campaign. “If she had lost rural America 2 to 1, it would have broken differently.”

    After years of declining electoral power, driven by hollowed-out towns, economic hardship and a sustained exodus, rural voters turned out in a big way this presidential cycle — and they voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump, fueling the real estate mogul’s upset victory. The billionaire New Yorker never issued any rural policy plans, but he galvanized long-simmering anger by railing against trade deals, the Environmental Protection Agency and the “war on American farmers.”

    Link from Tom Smith at Right Coast (http://rightcoast.typepad.com/rightcoast/),
    who notes: “here in San Diego Country, all the precincts to the east of the I-15 went for Trump and to west, went for Hillary. It’s just the edge of SoCal that’s blue. This really was a country versus court election. And the good old cause won.”

    Seems that all those states legalizing recreational marijuana are having a good effect on the Democrats, if this makes sense to a lot of ’em.

    Jethrene, in the fine, Democrat tradition of digging up people from 30+ years past in a candidates history, I suspect former classmates who were present in Hakim’s Nation of Islam days will be stepping up to the microphone in short order.

    Considering that his district votes 80/20 D/R if it’s a white R, and 65/35 D/R if it’s a black R, as long as it gets him the hell out of this state, I say go for it. Any damage he does to the DNC by filling the floppy clown shoes of DWS, is just icing on the cake.

    The folks at Powerline would love to refresh their stories of Hakim X’s past. More evidence of the DNC shallow bench.

    I like to drop in and listen to what the other side is saying. As you note above, the Democrats are saying they need to go all leftwing now. And I think they will. Basically become a socialist party. Remember, the majority of active Democrats under 30 think socialism is a good system.

    But the question is….will this cause more Republican gains as people see the Democrats going all loony tune (see Wisconsin). Or with 40% of the population voting Democrat no matter what, will they eventually take control of the country as a socialist party?
    As a capitalist and a Christian-American, I fear for an America run by the hard left of the Democrat party. Just drop in on Democrat discussions and read/listen to what they want to do if they get control of the country.

    Chuck, the socialist wing of the Democrat party is the fringe. Today’s Democrat party is about promoting debauchery, perversion, science denial, racism, violence and virtue signaling.

    I encourage them with all my heart.

    Keep your eyes on what happens in the Dem House leadership elections. Who gets what committee, etc. That will tell you how far Left the Dems are going. It’s kind of Ironic, but if the House Dems choose Pelosi again, it may seal their doom. Pelosi is in a safe, far Left district. She has no incentive to move House Dems anywhere but further Left.

    The soft-pedaling of Hakim has already started on MPR. They were covering his background this evening and even played some of his 1989 rants against the police as proof that he was BLM before BLM existed. They did downplay his associations with Farakhan and played his insistence that, while he defended Nation of Islam and admired it, he didn’t follow it or Farakhan then and had “outgrown it” now.
