You recall exactly right about Herschensohn and my support for him; I'm impressed.

I'll confess to you up front: I have a TON of posts to respond to, only a few minutes, and haven't read this thread. If there's something specific you want me to look at, tell me, and I'll try... probably tomorrow.

I have heard BH on Hugh Hewitt endorsing McClintock, and defending his participation and shrugging at Indian "gaming" involvement. My brief take on that is, I still like Bruce, but I profoundly disagree with him on this. At least he's candid: he says, "So what if we lose?"

I come down on a different side of the "So what?" than he does. Some of my so-what's are so families are hurt in a dozen different, terrible ways; so the rule of law is perhaps irretrivably damaged; so every slander ever slung at the conservative movement is proven true (self-willed, divisive, arrogant, implacable); and (here's a big one) so more and more pro-family conservatives are either bankrupted and/or driven out of state, hurting the conservative cause and leaving the government-dependency class in still greater ascension.

He may still be a great guy, but sometimes even great guys are wrong. IMHO, this is one of those times.

And there's no need to trash someone just to disagree with him.

You pretty much answered my post, but especially with your last comment. I'm glad you said that, I'd be disappointed if you let it slide.

If you do get a chance to read this thread, and I hope you do, you'll see that there is some real over-the-top stuff. Some of it got pulled already, thankfully.

Poor Bruce.
