It has always been that both sides of politics paid little attention to downside elections. But with the rise of the Tea Party and increasingly since, operatives on the Right educated and enlightened the previously unaware how to run and enter into school boards, county offices, etc. On the right, this happened, on the left, not so much at all, in fact, little to nothing. Once again, the Right worked hard on real and pertinent involvement, while the Left lavished in the bathwaters of their assumed elitist moral suppurlatives. In assessing the history of recent politics in America, care should given to the simple assessment of who rolled up their sleeves, and who simply strutted and fucked off.
