re: #4 SpaceJesus

My mother said a long time ago, these people aren’t conservatives, they are radicals and reactionaries. Unfortunately, they have taken over the conservative movement, which at this point is about 60 years old. It’s a movement that peaked in the 80s and now degenerated into a racket. It’s decline began when the GOP picked up the Dixiecrats that left the Democratic Party. Hannity and his ilk are making money of of ignorance and cultural resentment. I don’t doubt there are conservatives inn the general population who see this nonsense, but they aren’t running shit. Their once useful idiots are now in charge. There is a new generation that will associate conservatism with the TPers, Palin, Beck, Hannity and various assorted kooks in Congress. There simply is no counterbalancing force. Not yet anyway.
