Charlie Pierce Predicts the Future

It seems that the Republican party, which doesn't want you to think that it is primarily the party of old white men who say stupid things, commissioned a study to see why the yout' is so down on it, voting-wise, just because, you know, it's a party of old white men who say stupid things. The results are startlingly bad, as well as startlingly, well, accurate.

[...]

Words that up-for-grabs voters associate with the GOP: "The responses were brutal: closed-minded, racist, rigid, old-fashioned."

[...]

"We've become the party that will pat you on your back when you make it but won't offer you a hand to help you get there."

[...]

That's about as deadly as it can get, and it reflects a generation, debt-ridden, looking at seven percent unemployment as the new normal, and at a party that's more interested in Benghazi, Benghazi!, BENGHAZI! than in creating jobs. This is a huge opportunity for Democrats who, I predict, will drop it on their feet.

No doubt.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
