A hopeful thought for conservatives

A hopeful thought for conservatives
http://www.forbes.com/sites/joelkotkin/2014/01/09/how-silicon-valley-could-destabilize-the-democratic-party/
"Yet for all the advantages of this burgeoning alliance with tech interests, it threatens to create tensions with the party's traditional base — minorities, labor unions and the public sector — as the party tries accommodate a constituency that combines social liberalism and environmentalist sentiments with vaguely libertarian instincts. "
The idea of the  fat cats turning on Dems, by acting like fat cats is refreshing. Like everyone, they want to be liked, but the ingratitude shown here has to be a turn off. Unlike the majority occupants of the Democratic plantation, these fat cats won't participate in there own destruction.
"Another inevitable flashpoint regards unions, a core progressive constituency. Venture capitalist Mark Andreesen recently declared that "there doesn't seem to be a role" for unions in the modern economy because people are "marketing themselves and their skills." "
Being mugged by the thuggery of unions is something no one except unions like.
The problem is the fat cats ,in this case, expect things to work, and intentions are not sufficient. They are almost like republicans in this respect
