Winning Cases, Losing Voters

Paul Starr, co-editor of The American Prospect and the author, most recently, of The Creation of the Media writing in the New York Times (free registration required) says that the democratic Party is paying a historic price for the moral crusades of the last half-century.

"Democrats have paid a historic price for their role in the great moral revolutions that during the past half-century have transformed relations between whites and blacks, men and women, gays and straights. And liberal Democrats, in particular, have been inviting political oblivion - not by advocating the wrong causes, but by letting their political instincts atrophy and relying on the legal system."
