[Urbane Guerrilla]

The Left pins its hope on life "become too complicated for the common man to comprehend," and this is precisely what will bring the Left as currently constituted crashing to its ruin, and good riddance. The Left doesn't want you thinking, or if you think, thinking unclearly, with poor or dubious data -- and I see that here often and often. The thoughtful people in my experience abandon the Left. Overlarge government is a yoke and a curse, and it must be lifted in either metaphor.

Do not passively yearn for "a new generation of leaders," but instead do the leading yourself. If you're good, fate will smile on your endeavors. If you only can steer the nation to wrong, the nation will abandon you. I expect the Democratic Party to suffer this fate. Probably not all at once, but election by election over a fistful of years.
