We turn our attention to the forms of liberal Anger that are likely after November 6th. Part three of a four-part series.
What will be remarkable about liberal anger post-November 6 is that for the first time most of it may well be directed inward rather than outward.
Liberal anger should crest in the weeks and months after the midterms, and it will engender a great deal of internecine fighting among leftists.
Activists will push for the party to move to the left on major issues, and their insistence that a Democratic House, if one is elected, produce articles of impeachment against the President will be more akin to an ultimatum or a threat than a mere request.
The Democratic caucus, in short, will be riven by divisions as serious as those scarring the Democratic Party as a whole.
Anger threatens to wound the Democratic Party in even more serious ways than those we have already discussed.
It is my belief that, post November 6, liberal anger is likely to produce just the sort of episodic, largely ineffectual violence that leftist extremists perpetrated in the late 1960s and early 1970s, especially given the fact that many modern leftists look admiringly on some of these Nixon-era radicals.
