Demsrule86's JournalWHY DO THE DEMOCRATS like to shoot themselves in the feet? Old article from 1984...history repeats.
This is an interesting article from 1984...yes 84 from Harvard's student publication. I love google!
"WHY DO THE DEMOCRATS like to shoot themselves in the feet? Every four years, the same questions are raised by the faithfuls as to what the party should stand for and what us the proper tack to beat the Republicans. And every four years--be it 1968, 1972, 1976, or 1980--the party engages in a massive internal bloodletting. Not that the questions members beat each other over the head with aren't significant. They are, Who is the truer liberal? Who is the most electable in the November run-off? Democrats have rightly had to struggle among themselves to choose between the Humphrey's and the McCarthy's; the Muskie's and the McGovern's the Carter's and the Kennedy's.
But 1984 is different."
