Random Quote

Survival, with honor, that outmoded and all-important word, is as difficult as ever and as all-important to a writer. Those who do not last are always more beloved since no one has to see them in their long, dull, unrelenting, no-quarter-given-and-no-quarter-received, fights that they make to do something as they believe it should be done before they die. Those who die or quit early and easy and with every good reason are preferred because they are understandable and human. Failure and well-disguised cowardice are more human and more beloved.
-- Ernest Hemingway

Alignment Woes

 

I think I've figured out why it is that so many Republicans wind up in the White House. Frustrated Democrats can blame the media.

Leading question: which way does the media lean, left or right?

Left, of course, and so naturally the media rallies behind the primary candidates of each party who lean to the left. They give fawning coverage for leftist Democrats (the leftist leftists), and ample coverage for the leftist Republicans (the leftist rightists - which is to say, the centrists).

Because America tends to vote for the centrist, the Republican nominee for president winds up in the White House more often than not.
