Donk Self-Control

I think David Frum summed up this convention perfectly with the following:

The[Democrats] are constantly congratulating themselves for their moderation and restraint of tone, because their speakers merely call the President a liar and a cheat and a coward, and not also a Nazi and baby-killer.

Good for them, I suppose.

But Americans out there in voter-land have to wonder: OK, congratulations for stifling your Tourette’s syndrome – but what exactly do you Democrats propose to do for us if we give you the jobs you want? What two, three, four things will you guys actually do if you are elected to the White House and in Congress?…What will you do - and why don’t you seem willing to tell us?

This is, of course, a rhetorical question.
