THEY'RE SO INCLUSIVE NOBODY GOES THERE ANY MORE.

So, supposedly did Yankee catcher Yogi Berra crack wise about some famous night spot on Manhattan.

Rich Lowry argues that contemporary Democrats have committed a similar error.  "Democrats have made themselves so hateful to rural voters that they despair of reliably holding the Senate going forward."  There's more to the column but I promised not to comment further on judicial appointments.

A recently-mugged-by-reality academician called Bo Winegard (via Newmark's Door) sees the same thing.  "Democrats have become the party that promotes the interests of the hyper-educated by allowing them to signal their moral and cultural superiority over average Joes."  That post also bears on the dangerous side effects of the Cult of Smart just noted.
