What is "unholy" about this alliance.
I guess Pat Robertson's crew and the Wall Street tycoons comprise the "holy" alliance?

It doesn't surprise me that you stomach this without recognizing the unholy aspect. Picture Chicago, 1919. Mayor Daley's father is the secretary of the Hamburg club.
A race riot starts at the 31st street beach when a black kid swims over to a white swimming area. The kid drowns when the whites stone him under. The riots are entirely racial. On the one side, the white ethnic clubs, e.g., the Hamburg club. On the other, the minorities. Dozens are murdered.
Skip ahead to the 1980s. A black mayor is voted in. The ethnic whites in the entirely democratic city stonewall the mayor at every turn. The era is termed the "council wars".
On one side, the great Harold Washington. On the other, Richie Daley, Ed Burke, Ed Vrdolyak, etc....
What do the seemingly unrelated facts have to do with each other, aside from relating the hatred between parties? Well, the parties are the white ethnics and the northern blacks that form the unholy alliance.
Feel free to ditto Detroit, Cleveland, DC, and apparently, the confederate-flag waving areas of the south.
I mean, these people would lynch each other if they were found in each other's respective neighborhoods. They
have lynched each other when found in each other's respective neighborhoods. But they all be one big happy group of democrats, right there with the dinosaur-economists and the apologists.
