Obama's certainly thrown a kleig light on the harsh consequences of unchecked leftism. Trouble is, the underlying cultural, demographic, and moral trends are still in place, and powerful forces they are, gathering momentum for decades. To stop them, much less reverse them, will require Americans who love this country to get on the equivalent of a mass war footing, something we haven't done in America in 70 years. Can we do it? I don't know that we can, not as a nation entire. We are being undone in part by our own nostrums regarding education and media. The other side still has control of the dialogue.
