Strange that so many of the Western democracies are moving to the right while the U.S. is moving to the left.

Even after we see socialism failing in Europe and Canada, we still embrace it. I guess the french were right - we are "fat and stupid."

I think we're behind schedule. Those countries have already tried the Obama Way and found out that it doesn't work - the USA still has some hard experience to gain. ;)

The so-called "western" conservative parties are the ideological equivalent of Clintonian Democrats. This is a key reason why so many members of the Conservative party were secretly supporting an Obama victory.

"The West" is an antiquated concept anyway. We are not an outpost of Europe.
