American Samizdat

Tuesday, November 16, 2004. *
I've been trying to put my finger on this topic for a while... interesting post on Stealth Conservatism on The Washington Monthly.

In my post this morning about liberal goals, I mentioned that one of the problems facing Democrats is that "Republicans are mostly nibbling around the edges, not taking a chainsaw to liberal programs." And why is this a problem? Because it's hard to mobilize widespread opposition to conservative policies when they're put into place a little bit at a time. It's the old boiling frog problem.


Also check out the Elevator Talk post... along similiar lines.
