    Cuban expats that are vehemently anti communist.

    And who have apparently assimilated so well into US society that they have no idea what communism actually is anymore. A democrat vote is still miles away from anything even remotely resembling communism.

      It took me a few years to stumble upon the Overton window (without using that name at that time).
