@jamalgreene The LBJ political failure is of a higher order; it’s political aims were more than the sum of its legislative parts and its failure was more than electoral defeat, which is inevitable. The center didn’t hold. Liberalism was a casualty of his term. — PolitiTweet.org

@jamalgreene And it wasn’t just killed by white backlash politics, though that was obviously the single largest part. The rise of the new left—including the Black left—and a vigorous Dem primary challenge, along with the unrest and so on betrays this deeper failure — PolitiTweet.org
