    The downfall didn’t start with the direct election of Senators, but that was a major milestone of the Progressives flipping the Constitutional Order and mal-educating people about civics.

    Matt Yglesias isn’t the worst liberal put there, but I’d definitely classify him as a neo-liberal. He’s been mugged by Reality, and the Leftists in particular, but firmly believes Progressive ideology.

    John, not enough booze in the world to provide for the drinking games that would be needed to tolerate that….and I don’t have an extra liver to cope.
