There was a Democratic Party lurching left and a Republican Party dominated by pale and chubby men who had reluctantly or eagerly embraced liberalism because, as they used to say, they knew what time it was.

Sounds a lot like the present, except today's liberal Pubbies have lost weight and go out into the sun sometimes.

I am of that age and I remember too. Bartley was a soldier in a war that seemed hopeless, and a stalwart man one could always count on. Thank you, Peggy Noonan, for this moving remembrance.
