The Clinton campaign e-mails my newspaper office every day, more than Obama plus the two Republicans combined. Unfortunately, none of them has bought ad space in our group of suburban Dallas weeklies, but that’s another story.
Clinton’s office has had lists of endorsements in several of these e-mails. Problem is, most the people endorsing her are old white guys whom no Democratic voter under the age of 50 is going to recognize unless that voter has been a party activist.
Example? An e-mail two days ago listed 11 endorsements from former Texas politicians. Only one had severed in the state legislature, any time this century. Of the other 10, only four had served as late as 1990.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
