an opportunity

Paleocon Patrick Buchanan (missed him on the CSPAN broadcast of the Book expo) mulls the state of the Grand Old Party here.

TR worshipper Marshall Whitman believes "super serial" Al Gore will run for president, thus enabling Hillary Clinton to walk away with the nomination. Read his ruminations here.

On the topic of Al Gore, my only problem with someone who is obviously commited to something (the terror of global warming) is that he had his shot and he blew it. He let the campaign be dictated by the Bush agenda and let us own discomfort sink him, with a centrist, moderate agenda as a platform. If he runs, he will run as a populist and we do not need a populist (despite my blog's name).
