John Derbyshire just appeared on C-SPAN with Brian. It was absolutely amazing how liberal Democrats hungering for some scrap of intellectual content to bolster their "hate Bush" rhetoric, just ate up everything he said. It shows how intellectually bankrupt they are. I can see some sensible sounding Democrats splitting off from 1/3 of the radicals in their party leaving the radicals as a 3rd party and joining with some liberal Republicans to form a new party with maybe 30-40 % of the electorate to challenge and provide some real opposition to conservative Republicans.
