People, this is uncanny. This post was written in 2004, after Kerry lost. It could have been written today. Nobody learned anything. We are seeing the same dismissal of voters’ concerns, the same efforts to box them into a narrative of imaginary economic woe, the same condescending belief that their eyes need to be opened.
What needs to happen for this to change?

Castro’s DEAD!
!Al fin se murió!
That makes me happier than I thought it would.
I’m giddy.

Wow. I thought he was planning to live forever.
I’m glad, too. These people destroyed Cuba, simply destroyed it.

It’s not a Twitter trending rumor! It’s not someone I’d be sad about like a relative, a family friend or a great musician! His death isn’t going to create some horrible vaccuum because he hasn’t been controlling anything for 10 years!
Damage done, Fidel Castro was irrelevant long before he died

It’s got more of a symbolic value. Like the passing of (a horrible) era.

On Kerry, that is a good post. The upside: people are rattling and shaking a lot more about Trump. Obama and all seem to want us to just get with program, as in 2000, but they misjudge (thank God).
