survival of the survivingest
My friend mgo forwarded this to me from an AP article:
Seems like the best short-form explanation of why the Dems are always losing and tacking to the center. They have no incentive to win, just an incentive to not lose. More importantly they have no incentive to help their party win.
Republicans award chairmanships based on the
evaluation of a leadership committee that takes into
account leadership fealty, fundraising prowess and
other factors. Democrats would award would-be
chairmanships strictly by seniority.
