I’ll go along with that theory

Here’s David Brooks in today’s NYT on why the Democrats are not beloved by voters:

John Edwards has the most persuasive theory. He argues that most voters do not place candidates on a neat left-right continuum. But they are really good at sensing who shares their values. They are really good at knowing who respects them and who doesn't. Edwards's theory is that the Democrats' besetting sin over the past few decades has been snobbery.

Al Gore is mentioned.
