Yeah I'm with you that this won't last - he can't shake the old habits. It was just funny that he had a moment of lucidity in his normal horseshit. Because he's right - the party rebuilding around the working class would be it's future.

We could be wrong. But now that I've thought it over - I expect his very next column will include an explanation that, dear readers - of course(!) - he doesn't want Bernie style politics because this would tear at the very fabric of our society and our nation. In a chaotic Trumpian era it might behoove Americans to reconsider religion to find a deeper meaning in Jesus on a pancake blah blah blah blah blah blah...
