Democrats, you have your Ben Carson.
How so?
Both married to black women.
But, seriously, don't act like the two parties are mirror images of each other. Just because you have a certain number of crazy people, doesn't mean we have an equal number. Are there awful, unhinged, weridos in the Democratic Party? Yes, but they are a minority, and we don't let them lead our party and we don't craft our policies to cater to crazies.
The Republican Party has become a far-right party that constantly caters to the lowest common denominator. The Democratic Party has not become the mirror image of that. The fact that De Blasio gets portrayed as a left-winger is 99% about the state of our politics and the media, and 1% to do with reality. I hate this idea that, "oh well Ben Carson believes homosexuality is tantamount to bestiality, and De Blasio believes in trying to minimize pedestrian fatalities, BOTH EQUALLY CRAZY, HUH!" It's just lazy, pathetic moderate hero thinking.
