Bye Bye Conservatism

Anyone worried the neoconservative movement was here to stay is clearly mistaken. Little by little, Republicans are losing legitimacy and clout in Washington and it all comes down to the current administration, unfortunately.

The scandal of missing tapes in the investigation into the firing of 8 US Attorneys is being compared to "Nixon's famous '18-minute gap' in the White House tape recordings."

So Bush will resign/ live out his term, a Democrat will be elected into office, fail in foreign policy and lose his incumbency to a true conservative calling for a return to normalcy?

Maybe not. Conservatives can dream though, can't we?

I think the important aspect that you touch on is that politics, and any other given scenario, does change. People lament about anything lasting for x amount of time is now "how it is" and "will never change," but nothing could be further from the truth. (expect a post about this soon maybe)
