Even if that is true (and I think you are in denial - the evidence is that Americans HAVE been turning their backs on conservatism) its still not very good news. If moderates are being voted out it implies a hardening of political opinion, a growth of extremism and a deepening of what is already an uncomfortable political divide in the USA.

Which Americans are you talking about here? It's not like Obama won a 50-state landslide. If the conservative Republicans have turned their back on the moderates, it's not without cause. We're been there for them on issues of concern, but when it comes time for them to take one for the team, they're stabbing us in the back.

Have they turned their backs on Conservatism?

As an escapee of the Peoples Socialist Republic of Mass, I beg to differ. These folks have no concept of Conservative Platform as the party get weaker and NEA school systems get stronger all the way up through the University Level, in those states.

Go their and watch the Cable their, it is pablum, Talk Radio? forgetaboutit. It is real hard to find all the talkers, and if they were their the ladder climbers like my relatives show their panache by reading the NY Slimes and Listening to Pravda I mean NPR.

Quite frankly, GWB shouldn't have liberated Iraq, He should have sent soldiers in to teach a course on Conservatism at the Community College Level and liberated the North East States.
