Timothy Shenk, GWU Professor and author of Left Adrift: What Happened to Liberal Politics, joins The Realignment. Marshall and Timothy discuss how culture has replaced economics as the electorate's dividing line, the multiple paths forward for Democrats after they began to lose working-class voters in the 1980s, why political consultants are more important than one would think, and whether the left or right will come out ahead as the American political system realigns.
