PPP Poll: Walker Leads GOP Pack with 25%; Jeb at 17%, Huckabee at 10%Ben Carson is actually in second place with 18%. Jay Cost looks back to the Republican convention of 1880 to find a case of a "frontrunner" whose support is as anemic as Jeb Bush's in this interesting piece. He compares today's vampiric Republican establishment class (most of whom make a living off being professional Republicans) to the "Immortal 306," the 306 delegates who never gave up on trying to give U.S. Grant a then-unprecedented third term as president -- just to get their federal patronage phony-baloney jobs back.
Meanwhile, Robert Tracyzinski pens this good piece on Scott Walker's challenge to the current establishment class, and I mean "class" more emphatically than usual. There are no real class divisions in America except one: the college-educated versus the non-college educated... I'm not sure if I agree with his formulation -- that leftist politics are now part of the cultural identity of college educated people. Let's always remember there are more college-educated Republicans than Democrats. I think it works better in reverse -- that college is one of the most important class markers for those with left-leaning politics. * But interesting stuff. And more on Scott Walker from The Meatball, who says Scott Walker is all the left's fault. The ferocity of the anti-Walker attacks during the recall attempt cannot be understated: no stone was left unturned, no "scandal" or slip of the tongue left unmentioned, and this may only help candidate Walker going into 2016. The Democrats spent millions of dollars and thousands of hours digging, scooping, ad-cutting, and hammering. They threw the kitchen sink at the guy in 2012, threw their neighbor’s sink at him in 2014, and now nobody on the block will let them inside to pee. Out of useful topsoil, what do they do now? Whoa, let's not get ahead of ourselves! He's not the National Death Dealer quite yet. * Actually, thinking about it, he may be right: Leftist poses as a sort of "scientific materialist" cosmopolitan sophistication, which is attractive to those who wish to be considered educated but aren't so much. One thing this particular class likes to do to demonstrate its class affiliation is to offer up leftist dogmas -- and even Republicans will do this. Right now, we're seeing many educated Republicans swear on a pack of Bibles that Obama loves his country and must assuredly be a Christian (it's not like he's ever lied to us before for purposes of political viability, God knows). Traczynski may be right-- maybe even Republicans feel the need to declare their fidelity to leftist dogmas in order to establish their class separation from The Lower Orders. | Recent Comments
