RUSH: I had a piece yesterday I didn\u2019t get to, so I reprinted it. Mark Penn and Andrew Stein had a piece<\/a> that ran in the…<\/p>\n

\"\"I think it was the New York Times. It was. On July 6. This is yesterday. Penn is a pollster now. He works at Harvard, runs the Harvard poll. He has the most dire warnings for the Democrats. He points out (paraphrased), “You people in the Democrat Party had better understand something: Only 27% of the country is liberal.” Did that stop you dead in your tracks? Sure doesn\u2019t look like that. I mean, you turn on the news, you turn on TV — watch a movie, TV show, listen to music — and you think the whole freaking country is liberal.<\/p>\n

But in truth, only 27% of the population self-identifies as liberal in Democrat polling data. And the whole point of Mark Penn\u2019s piece here is how the Democrats are committing suicide by this identity politics, this coalition of nothing but minorities and moving far, far left. It\u2019s not the solution, not the answer, and therefore they\u2019ve got some serious self-examination to do or they\u2019re gonna continue to lose elections. Justifiably and understandably. The media won\u2019t lose elections. But they will continue to make jackasses of themselves and literally fools of themselves. It\u2019s not just Twitter now but left-wing hipster sites like Deadspin (or Deadwood or BuzzSpin, whatever).<\/p>\n

\"\"They are ripping into CNN as an absolute embarrassment. “How dare they blackmail this kid on Reddit!” Of course, CNN is beyond shame and CNN is beyond embarrassment because they have no genuine sense of self. They have created this alternative reality in which they are champions, in which they are dominant, and in which they happen to reflect the majority of thinking in the country. They are disillusioned, and they are becoming demented, and it\u2019s happening in front of our faces, right in front of our eyes. It\u2019s stunning to see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
