With sincere American apologies to all on the list--
For the Bush re-election. We have what must now be recognized as the
most right-wing major industrialized nation in the world, having
shifted even further to the right. The American Left has to engage in a
serious examination of what it must do to forge a real populist and
majority coalition. The central problem is that the Right gets its
voters to the polls, and the Left doesn't. And if it doesn't, more
losses loom. Simple as that.
But again, as an American, it's a sad, tragic time, and I can only
apologize to the rest of you outside the US for this new, disturbing
development.
