How does that freak show not blow up the party's claim to have serious policies to help govern the country? How does that carnival of unimaginative invective add up to a governing philosophy? How does that massive, chewy clusterfck add up to a single rational moment of human thought?

These are SERIOUS QUESTIONS. They should be asked (in these exact words) by every Democrat in office. And every voter.

The GOP hasn't done any governing for 16 years now. SIXTEEN YEARS. Girls born to conservative families when they stopped doing any governing are now old enough to go to those creepy Father/Daughter purity dance thingies! It's taken less time for New Horizons to reach Pluto!
