Scarborough: ‘It Is the Cultural Issues that Have Disconnected Democrats from a Lot of Middle America’

Bruni: ‘Democrats are bad at being relentlessly practical the way they need to be’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "I’ve been asking all Democratic leaders that come on here, 'Would you be okay with a pro-life person if they're from Alabama or from Kentucky? And if they are from Alabama and they agree with you on economics, is it okay if they are pro-life?' I keep hearing no. 'No, it’s not. No, it’s not.' Harold, you know very well, I mean, Donna Brazile, I remember after 2004 wrote an op-ed in the 'New York Times.' She said, 'When I go home, they don’t ask about our economics, they keep asking why we’re for abortion.' Again, I’m not just talking about that one issue, but that is a cultural issue. It is the cultural issues that have disconnected Democrats from a lot of Middle America."
