I don't know Ann Althouse's work. I like her take on Bradley except for this last point. But BRADLEY is still right: the Democrats should develop a coherent ideology in order to speak persuasively to that average citizen, who longs for ideas that make sense. Ideology is a dependent variable in Bradley's argument; not an independent one as she seems to suggest, though she may have been writing quickly. He's more concerned with the structure which will support a "coherent ideology" than with the content of one. That's one of my misgivings about the argument but I see wherefrom he cometh.
