summer, thanks for the heads-up, I always enjoy your posts.

You may recall that my reaction to the Baldwin post was not all positive. The point I made was that Conservatives sometimes seem over-willing to validate liberal arguments by showing that they too can be politically correct. I labeled that post as showing how conservatives "concede the premise" to the liberals when they validate the importance of race or "social-correctness" as more important than qualifications or principle. I think the point of this post shows that no matter how often conservatives attempt to show that they too can "play to the public concerns" liberals raise, they will never get a free pass to be conservative. Logically, when you concede the premise, you have lost the argument. Sorry, but I think this article shows my concern was valid.
