The contrast is illuminating, between what these Democratic
senators want to do and what the president has actually done.
And still he is the lesser evil, by far, even for the
geezers, when compared either to the Republicans who ran against him or to those who wanted to run against him.
Given the aspirations of the Republicans, a sensible fogey has to hope for a long string of Democratic victories, even when the Democrat is clearly not as good as some minor party candidates.
In fact, we have to hope that, for the duration of the current wave of Republican radicalism, and so for the foreseeable future, no minor party candidate runs who could possibly split the left enough for the Republicans to win.
With any luck, another sequence of minor party forays will split the right, as one did back in the 1990s.
