The Talk of the Party listens to how the language of partisanship--including words like Democrat, Republican, party, liberal, conservative, and independent--has been used over the past fifty years and how it has created or limited political opportunities. Listening to the talk of the party can teach valuable lessons about campaigns, opportunities for public life, and the future of these American institutions.
