every dem primary is going to have one guy whose past is vague except for them working for the CIA, all will have no discernable platform, they will have one of 3 faces, all of them will call hilldawg their hero. attempts to FOIA them will produce a number of documents all heavily redacted, none dating from before 2014

loquacius posted:can someone explain to me how the Clinton campaign "went high" at all, while we're on the subject In this case it was very clearly meant to indicate that Hillary "Deplorables" Clinton and the Democratic party wouldn't stoop to base demagoguery like those nasty Republicans, meaning they (and by extension you, the voter) are morally superior. They're the party of sensible, competent technocrats don't you know? You can see all the detailed policies if you just visit the website!* *Or attend one of the many donor dinners where all politically relevant individuals will have an opportunity to hear the candidate's "private" position on the issues.

loquacius posted:can someone explain to me how the Clinton campaign "went high" at all, while we're on the subject "when they go low, we go high" wasn't a clinton campaign line. it was given by michelle obama at the dem convention, probably a speech written by obama's staff although i dunno the specifics on how much autonomy is given to speakers at big dem events like that either way, it was never connected to actual campaign strategy and only caught on as a catch phrase because it came from the only inspiring speech at the convention. which is why it's a little ironic that it's also caught on as a symbol of democrat incompetence, since i think it's still pretty good advice (don't get distracted by mud throwing, focus on the promises you intend to deliver).

SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:It's because the way dems are going guy is by sneering from an ivory tower. Their entire electoral strategy is a high horse moral superiority because tromp rude and they shake your hand when they pick your pocket Yah. Ferrinus posted this link in dnd and the article is a great explanation of dems' imagined intellectual superiority: https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/the-blathering-superego-at-the-end-of-history/ Liberalism remained slightly kinder than pure reaction — not quite so racist, not so terribly brutal to the poor — but even these commitments were subsumed by the ideology of pure competence. Bigotry wasn’t evil, it was just stupid, an impediment to growth. Health care reform and the welfare state were not moral necessities, they were the best means of keeping workers healthy and productive. The notion that knowledge asymmetries lay at the root of all political conflict was quickly transmuted into the basis of policy itself. If liberals became masters of the world due to their superior respect for facts, then education — not redistribution — was the only hope for the dispossessed. If liberals believed in climate change because scientists told them they should, then the trouble was not the metastatic excesses of capital but the failure of reactionaries to bow to empirical consensus. The result was an American political movement whose center was a moral void. When John Kerry spoke out against the death penalty, his opposition was based in flawed application — the punishment just wasn’t smart. When he criticized Bush’s handling of the War in Iraq, his position was similar: he would continue the war but be more strategic about it. When Kerry lost, American liberals opined that there were just too many rubes out there. They would have voted better — smarter — if only they had had the right data visualizations in front of them. When Barack Obama won, and then passed the Heritage Foundation’s health care policy while carrying out a drone war responsible for the incineration of children in half a dozen sovereign nations, he did it while remaining the smartest guy in the room. That was what mattered. At the dawn of the 21st century, we stood on the doorstep of a permanent managerial world order. The wonks just needed to finish explaining it to the rest of us.

Zhulik posted:At some point in the early 2000s a member of the Duma argued that measures to reduce state corruption would inevitably backfire. theres no point in replacing a corrupt official when they'll just be replaced by another corrupt official. it's more important to deal with the body or system that's putting corrupt officials in power in the first place in the case of Dem leadership, ousting a generic incompetent centrist from a leadership position is a waste of energy if a solid supermajority of the people involved in choosing their replacement are generic incompetent centrists Brother Friendship posted:the cherry on top of 2016 was harry reid, after witness the complete demolishment of the democrats at every level of government, trotted out of hiding just to say that the Democrats were doing great and didn't need to change anything. remember when the House under Pelosi passed a public option and then Reid's Senate cut it out
