It’s OK to call them Democrats. But referring to the Democratic Party as the “Democrat Party” is a snarky little insult that right-wing Republicans like to use–see, they think the “Democrat Party” isn’t really “democratic.” When you say “Democrat politicians,” you seem to be doing the same thing, and it will make you seem like a snarky, immature righty.</p>
<p>darn. i’m a typical Conservative Roman Catholic and i avoided yale b/c i thought it was too liberal. But after reading this, that probably wasn’t smart. I applied to harvard instead, and i probably would have been more likely to get in to yale than harvard. oh well.</p>
<p>what makes you think that Harvard is any more conservative than Yale? Harvard is just as liberal if not more…</p>
<p>fjghas: Perhaps as a Harvard-aspirant, you should listen less to bloviated generalizations and dig deeper into the culture of communities. “Yale is liberal” “Dartmouth is conservative” “New Yorkers like bagels” “The midwest is boring”</p>
<p>
I have personally seen New Yorkers consuming bagels, so I know this one is true.</p>
