Going To Extremes

The elites forgot about those they left behind:

As I watched the already progressive Democratic Party rush headlong to see how far left it could go, I was convinced that the party's radical coastal elites were leaving behind regular Democrats in the rest of the country. That conviction grew stronger this election year. I repeatedly said that I couldn't believe that Joe and Edna Democrat in Flyover, USA were on board with drag queen story hours and pro-criminal prosecutors. We now know that they weren't. In fact, there were rightward shifts even in deep blue states, indicating that some Democrats want the progs to pump the brakes on the raging lefty garbage. One of those pro-criminal prosecutors was tossed out on his ear by voters in Los Angeles. Still, the Democratic Party remains under the control of those coastal elites who are so blinded by ideology that they don't know they're on the fringe (I'm adding Illinois, Colorado, and Minnesota Dems into the "coastal elite" mix here). One Democrat in a deep blue state on the coast does see how things really are, though, and it doesn't appear that many of his fellow Dems are listening to him.
