PARTY: But no celebration

The Democratic Party has offered no programs to help improve the lives of voters. Instead they are the “Hate Trump Party.”

If the Democrats lose congressional seats in the mid-term elections, they will have an unpleasant choice.

1. Abandon Pelosi and Schumer and move to the center to appeal to modernists and independents.

2. Risk losing the Socialist wing of the party.

3. Stay the course and lose elections.

Goldwater pulled his party too far to the right. McGovern pulled his party too far to the left. Both suffered landslide losses.

With no message that appeals to voters, the Democratic Party may be following the lead of the old white party. Good riddance.

P.S. We need a two-party system.
