The New Democratic Base?Michael Barone notes the
rise of the trustfunder left. It's a good news/bad news scenario for the Democrats:
The good news for Democrats is that they have found a new source of votes and money. The bad news is that an important part of their core constituency has the characteristic that the British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin ascribed to the press, "power without responsibility, the prerogative of the harlot throughout the ages."Not hard to predict the reaction of the blogger left to that column.
