>>perhaps I dismissed Sullivan too quickly<< Have you read the book he wrote over a decade ago "Virtually Normal", or his more recent "The Conservative Soul" ? I think you will find there is much you agree on. And he's a writer, not a politician. He reaches an audience that no liberal does - I don't think he's wasted his time.

>>And maybe it is that he is not from the U.S. ... perhaps he doesn't realize that from the day LBJ signed the civil rights act... the Republicans, by choice, became the party of bigots. That's just how it is. If they are to rise beyond that... the bigots need to get a tiny 3rd party. At least in 2008 it will be a tiny party, not the size it was in '72 under Wallace.<< That is so right on. I get in a lot of trouble for saying it though-lol. Palin could lead the "bigot party" very well-lol.
