Nice post!
Michael Medved and I travelled a very similar path, although his was and is far more distinguished than mine. We both came to see the blatant hypocrisy and cynicism of the Left from the inside. It took me a few more years (and Ronald Reagan) to put it all together.
I always enjoy watching, reading, and/or listening to conservative commentators, but those who have shifted from the Left give me the greatest pleasure. I guess that it is sort of self-affirming, since in my profession (psychologist), the Left (hard and soft) clearly rules.
