Cycles of Politics, Inevitable “Progress” or Something Else?
My initial instincts are to agree with the 2nd graf of Peter Kirsanow’s post up today at National Review Online…
Obamacare is shaping up as the most visible domestic policy disaster in our lifetimes and Democrats/progressives will suffer a setback as a result, but conservatives would be mistaken to think that public backlash against Obamacare represents a durable realignment in public sentiment against big-government liberalism or that Democrats will suffer more than a temporary, shallow setback from the debacle.
…though not necessarily with every detail that follows (though they are definitely worth reading).
What do others think; too pessimistic or just right?
