It'd be very interesting to see a dispassionate update on what has changed and what hasn't in the last three-plus years. (My guess: not much.) I grew up surrounded by these people, and I miss them. They were crusty and had many problems, but they were also the salt of the earth in a way hard to imagine these days. Mostly blue-collar Democrats. Picture Mike Rowe's show maybe. One in our neighborhood, who lived on a main road, would regularly invite hobos (homeless, for you kids) to their family dinner table, feed them a hot meal, and send them on their way. Not particularly from some religious motivation. Rather, it was more like "We're all Americans, and we stick up for each other". That's an ethos, a feeling, that we all (and Democrats in particular) need to recapture, in my opinion.
