identity politics is all you got....

Democrats are finally beginning to question the wisdom of basing their fortunes on identity politics.

Having counted on the allegiance of African-Americans, Hispanics, gays, unmarried women and the young — and winning the popular vote all but once since 1992 — they were seduced into believing that they could ride this "coalition of the ascendant" into permanent command of the presidency.

Even Bernie Sanders is urging that "we go beyond identity politics" if Democrats are ever to appeal again to the working class.
