After almost two weeks of critical media coverage of Joe Biden’s handsy history, poll after poll indicates most Democrats do not care. The latest Quinnipiac poll—of California, no less—has the yet-to-announce Biden easily leading Bernie Sanders and favorite daughter Kamala Harris. This poll also has Harris performing better among white liberals than nonwhite voters.
These findings are mostly news to the progressive elites at the top of Democratic politics and the establishment media. The data suggesting the Democratic Party is an upstairs/downstairs coalition in which a small faction of disproportionately white progressives dominate a more diverse rank-and-file has been piling up in studies by More in Common, Pew, and Gallup. In recent days, some in the media have finally begun to notice.
At The New York Times, resident propellerheads Nate Cohn and Kevin Quealy find that “[t]oday’s Democratic Party is increasingly perceived as dominated by its ‘woke’ left wing. But the views of Democrats on social media often bear little resemblance to those of the wider Democratic electorate.” They add: “The outspoken group of Democratic-leaning voters on social media is outnumbered, roughly 2 to 1, by the more moderate, more diverse and less educated group of Democrats who typically don’t post political content online.”

ReplyDeleteNorthwest Woodsman: Sorry folks but the reality is that the majority of democrat constituents are easily misled, misinformed, and are naive enough to believe what they are being fed by a cooperative, controlled media. Taking a close look at their voters reveals that they are predominately poor, uneducated minorities, illegal aliens, felons, Marxist believers and the young inexperienced idealists who have no idea what they are voting for. Take a look at the last presidential election. The fact that evil Hildabeast received so many votes is astounding. She is like that ex-spouse you fantasize about putting in a 55 gal drum full of concrete! But, she came close to winning. I also believe that there is a genetic component present in those leaning toward liberalism and that combined with the factors mentioned above is a problem that will always exist and will to the point of destruction of our once great country.
