happyacres discovered 7 weeks ago- Tired Republicans think they need "bold new government initiatives." I threw up in my mouth just a little.

- From the page: "From Day One, Nixon and I talked about creating a new majority" Buchanan told me recently, sitting in the library of his Greek-revival house in McLean, Virginia, on a secluded lane bordering the fenced grounds of the Central Intelligence Agency. "What we talked about, basically, was shearing off huge segments of F.D.R.'s New Deal coalition, which L.B.J. had held together: Northern Catholic ethnics and Southern Protestant conservatives - what we called the Daley-Rizzo Democrats in the North and, frankly, the Wallace Democrats in the South." Cold-blooded? Obviously. Disgusting? That, too.

Buchanan grew up in Washington, D.C., among the first group--men like his father, an accountant and a father of nine, who had supported Roosevelt but also revered Joseph McCarthy.

- In retrospect, the Reagan Presidency was the high-water mark of conservatism. In some respects, the conservative movement was a victim of success. With the Soviet Union dissolved, inflation reduced to virtually negligible levels, and the top tax rate cut to nearly half of what it was in 1980, all of Ronald Reagan's major stated goals when he took office had been achieved, leaving perplexed and fractious conservatives to fight over where they might now lead the country

- This is an interesting read about behind the scenes moves to win election
