The Conventional Wisdom of the Political Elite

SEE HERE Charles Krauthammer joins Karl Rove in suggesting that Christine O'Donnell is unelectable in Delaware. That of course is TBD (To Be Determined). O'Donnell addressed the Values Voters Summit conference this weekend in Washington, D.C. and was very impressive. Newt Gingrich, no slouch when it comes to political affairs, suggested that she was indeed electable because in his assessment the election will come down to paychecks or foodstamps with the liberal policies leading to increased joblessness and dependency. We'll see who is right in November. In any case electability is not the sole measure. There is something called truth and values and until we face up to that we will continue to see the dissolution of the republic.

Don't think for a moment that the issue is merely winning a particular office. At this time we are met on a great battlefield for the hearts and minds of America. On one side stand the leftists who hold out a false promise of utopia constructed on the bodies and treasure of the productive and on the other hand are those who support freedom and liberty. You cannot have a utopia built on stolen treasure, but the treasure is soon exhausted and poverty follows.
