Today at the Editor’s glance: Road closures: The City of Palm Coast will be working on Palm Coast Parkway eastbound on the I-95 overpass on Thursday, October 14 causing a closure to one lane from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. This is part of a beautification project for the overpass. One lane will be open at all times in order to allow traffic to flow through the area. There will also be night delays and detours at Palm Coast Parkway and Old Kings Road, between 9 p.m. and 7 a.m. until Oct. 22. See: “Expect Delays and Detours Over Next 10 Nights as Paving Coats Widened Old Kings Road at Palm Coast Parkway.” In court: Circuit Judge Terence Perkins conducts a couple of sentencings of individuals convicted on drug charges. He will conduct a 1 p.m. Risk Protection Order Compliance hearing–when the court is asked to intervene and confiscate guns from an individual deemed at risk of harming self or others. Perkins is also holding drug court today at 10 a.m. The Flagler Beach City Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall. The commission will discuss and approve a plan to spend American Rescue Plan money, and they will consider raising water, sewer and garbage fees.

“The second, opposite, danger is that, instead of pandering to culturally conservative voters, Democrats–particularly upscale liberal Democrats–will revile them. This week’s devastating loss may produce a spasm of liberal anti-Americanism akin to the conservative anti-Americanism that followed the failure to impeach Bill Clinton. Little could be worse for the Democratic Party than a surge of cultural elitism, something that has hurt it immeasurably over the years. It must be resisted ferociously.”

-—Peter Beinart, “What Went Wrong?,” on the 2004 election, The New Republic, Nov. 15, 2004.
