The party of winners

British journalist Johann Hari on a cruise with America's most partisan wingnuts catches this quote:

Yes, D'Souza says, in a swift shift to domestic politics, "of course" Republican politics is "about class. Republicans are the party of winners, Democrats are the party of losers."

Kind of an odd statement after the beating they took last November.

Then again, Brits sometimes have a problem with American-English. Maybe D'Sousa said "Republicans are the party of whiners"
