It seems an inglorious beginning, but some scientists are now convinced humanity's origins can be traced to an ancient, flat, fishlike worm.

Most Democrats never evolved beyond that.

I disagree....this also from the article: "Notably, that they had the seeds of a spine. "

Given that "A Spine" for any politician is a genetic anomaly, I'd think that the flatworm is a more advanced lifeform.
