"The era of American politics that has been dying before our eyes was born in 1966. That January, a twenty-seven-year-old editorial writer for the St. Louis Globe-Democrat named Patrick Buchanan went to work for Richard Nixon... his Administration adopted an undercover strategy for building a Republican majority, working to create the impression that there were two Americas: the quiet, ordinary, patriotic, religious, law-abiding Many, and the noisy, élitist, amoral, disorderly, condescending Few." Tim, there may have been a lot of partisan splits over the course of history but the particular one that started with Buchanan's memo and is alleged to be winding down now was the topic. Do you not have anything to say about that particular split?
