      I was one of 32 contributors to a Washington Post Magazine symposium on the following question: "The Democrats Are Moving Left. Will America Follow?" Not sure this striking headline captures what I really think, or said, but I like the ring of it: https://www.washingtonpost.com/magazine/2019/11/12/democrats-are-moving-left-will-america-follow-perspectives-partys-dramatic-turn/?arc404=true …pic.twitter.com/BUBZEyvo9d

      There's a pretty interesting cross-section of voices here -- 32 short pieces no doubt being an allusion to the Goldberg Variations

          Not gonna claim that the sudden nosedive in Warren's support vindicates my analysis, but I'll privately suspect it doeshttps://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/11/26/what-happened-elizabeth-warren/ …

          Interesting hypothesis, that the progressive movement has become adept at taking over institutions, using tactics that simultaneously alienate it from the voters.

          @Pwneill I think I may now be with you in ranking Sanders ahead of Warren for reasons outlined here.

          Potentially welcome to the dark side? I'm just not sure this is anything more than a more educated version of asking Trump voters in a WV diner if they hate gay people and then being like "welp identity politics doesn't work"
