as a top regional event. This year,
thousands of fans gathered for the
events, which began at 3 p.m. and
culminated with a rousing Cotton

T-Pain. By all accounts, the event came off with-

fall football weekend. The event, sponsored by the
MSU Student Association in conjunction with the
city of Starkville and numerous corporate spon-
sors has grown from a small, on-campus concert
when it started 20 years ago to a large-scale
event. We applaud not only the organizers, but the
city’s fire and police departments for their efforts
in making sure Bulldog Bash as a safe, fun event.

Arguments over Cartoonist view

electability are an
annoying diversion
O
ur subject to-
day is a word.
It seems to
be the word of the
moment, at least on
the political left. One
can hardly read an
opinion page or watch
cable news without
confronting this
tiresome term, this
irksome idiom.
For the love of
heaven, people, please Leonard Pitts
stop saying “electabil-
ity.”
Note, please, that the last president was a
black man with the unlikely name of Barack
Hussein Obama Jr., who came to office with
just a few years of senatorial experience. His
successor was a TV reality show host with
no government experience whatsoever and a
history of racist, misogynistic and incompe-
tent behavior.
Neither was electable by any traditional
measure. Both were elected, nevertheless. So
what does “electability” mean?
Some may contend the word, in this
context, simply denotes a search for the
candidate best equipped to take down Donald
Trump. To whatever degree that’s true, one
can have no argument with it.
But here’s the thing: it is hard to escape
a conviction that those raising questions of
“electability” actually have far more in mind.
Meaning a perceived need to sway Trump
voters in next year’s election. That’s the un-
avoidable subtext of the ongoing debate over
whether Democratic candidates are moving
“too far to the left” in offering plans to, say,
forgive student loan debt or extend health
care to all.
Beg pardon, but: “too far to the left” for
whom?
That’s not to endorse any particular one of
the bold ideas being put forth by the likes of
Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris. It is,
rather, to say that something is wrong when
boldness itself is identified as a problem. One
learns not to expect profiles in courage from a
party that agonizes like Hamlet over whether
to impeach the most impeachment-worthy
president in history, but even by the chick-
en-hearted standards of the Democrats, this
debate is disheartening.
Ask yourself: when is the last time you saw
the GOP wring its hands over whether its
policies were attractive to Obama voters? Win
or lose, the right knows what it believes, and it
does not change that to chase voters who hold
it in contempt. Note that after its 2012 “autop-
sy” advised the party to be more inclusive, the
GOP instead doubled down on its message of
white grievance — and won.
In fairness to Democrats, it is likely easier
for Republicans to be ruthlessly single-mind-
ed, given that their audience is relatively
monochromatic and clustered around a few
core issues. Embrace guns, scorn abortion,
immigrants and gays and drop Jesus’ name
