6. Nice article
The author hit quite a few points that I've thought about myself over the last several years.

The GOP knows where it wants to go and how it wants to get there. I don't think the same can be said of Democrats. It seems as though a Democratic vision for America, not just isolated policies, got lost somewhere in the shipwreck of LBJ's presidency.

The author is damn right about the 'framing, narrative, and infrastructure' craze. I've seen a lot of people claim that repackaging the same old shit will make it sell. I have my doubts about that, as you can tell...

Anyway, the big picture got lost a while back. I'd say it's time to get it back.
