It’s very telling that the Demonrats always have to lie about who they are. The public is always more conservative in views when actually laid before them on issues and yet falls for the lying masquerade of the Demonrats. So let them be so bold to claim conservatism is dying or close to dead, but it’s coming from people who never deal in reality.
The problem is that their strategy of lying actually works. They get elected and they take over education and the airwaves and they implement all sorts of other programs that shift the country a little bit further to the left.
Tanenhaus sounds like a typical east-coast lib who thinks what's popular in Manhattan is what American really thinks. Little does he know. America is far more conservative than he realizes. Even most die-hard Dems I know (like my parents) are very socially conservative. I find it nothing short of amazing that these libs believe that most of America thinks the way they do. He's finding that out now that they don't.
