On episode 47 of The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast, I tried to work out why some of the anti-Israel protests have bothered me so much. Then I talked to Ruy Texeira about the current state of the Democratic Party. Among the questions I asked Ruy were: Why is his new book called Where Have All the Democrats Gone? when the Democrats seem to be doing fine? Why is the “shadow Democratic Party” so strong? What is the “soul” of the Democratic Party? What did Bill Clinton get right in the 1990s? How correct was the thesis of The Emerging Democratic Majority? Is abortion hurting the Republicans? What should we draw from this year’s Virginia elections? And is demography destiny after all?
