Politics is no longer about pointing to a shining city on the hill; it's about promising you a shiny new car for your driveway.

They see that the way to win is by first telling people everything that is wrong with the world and then painting a vision of the life they want - a Utopian vision that they'll create right here on earth, one where no one is ever sick or hungry, jobless, or homeless.
