I’m basically a Liberal (pomo/neo, not classical), but consider myself on loan to Team Progressive till 2020 at least. They are so inept, even I can‘t hurt them right now. And liberals are holding their own without my help, though gaining a reputation for classical obnoxiousness.

Can be said of any elected, really.
I think they're all still very raw in a most garage band sorta way. They just need to jam more and hit the right notes....

Not really, I have to give it to conservatives, liberals, and libertarians that they are all generally more economically literate and also better at picking their battles
Not so sure if tax cuts + ideological defense spending qualifies as economic literacy.
The picking battles part is just partisan chessboarding...
I agree, appearing hip and livestreaming he chores will only get them so far..
What's lawrence lessig upto these days anyway?

You don't have to agree with *intent* ... it still takes economic literacy to steal effectively from public resources etc. Unlike progressives re: redistribution/progressive taxation, the trickledownistas don't actually buy their own BS. They know they're in it for profit.
