Is conservatism finished?
What might have seemed an absurd question less than two years ago is now one of the most important issues in American politics.

Dionne is smoking crack again.
Hey EJ, this is where you reveal your true Marxist colors. Nothing's being given away as you so succinctly put it. It was always *theirs* which was being extorted/ stolen/ robbed from them under gunpoint by your cohorts in the govt. Its about returning stolen property to their rightful owners
Nah, Clinton was the worst type of liberal. He kept figuring out ways to stay in office.
...and their 'exit-polling'.
Some journalist that E.J. Dionne. Guess Linda Lovelace was the E.J. Dionne of her generation.

-Libya gives up nuke program, terrorism

-Action on controlling the border, even if dragged into doing it kicking and screaming, you think the Dems would ever do anything?
Personally, President Bush and the Republicans have won me over big time. The Rats have to do their best to depress the Pubies cause that's all they have to offer.
Not conservatives, that's for sure.
"Is conservatism finished?"
Uh, no. Although people may speak as lefties, deep in thier hearts they live as conservatives.
Liberalism may have the day with control of the press and schools and such, but basic human nature tends to lean towards conservatism, for the most part.
Sorry, but even the mighty drive-by leftstream media has little or no control over human nature.
I thought EJ Dionne was a woman who wrote romance novels.
