Right Wing Crack-up

While the Dems are doing the Obama dance, the Republicans are cracking-up. In the New York Times, article "Unease in the Conservative Commentariat" by Patricia Cohen states: Today, President Bush’s policies and the collapse of Wall Street have led longtime conservatives to conflicting conclusions about where the Republican Party should be headed. And the disillusioned commentary of credentialed conservatives...may be the sound of a movement splintering at its foundation — a movement whose intellectuals have long been uneasy with, for example, the rising power, in the Bush years, of evangelicals, with their categorical faith in creationism and distrust of scientific reason.

Read the links below to witness a few examples of conservative columnists:

Peggy Noonan: "Palin's Failin'"
Kathleen Parker: "Palin Problem"
David Brooks: "The Class War Before Palin"
Christopher Buckley: "Sorry, Dad, I'm Voting for Obama"
George Will: "Is McCain Fit for the Presidency?"
Christopher Hitchens: "Vote for Obama: McCain lacks the character and temperament to be president. And Palin is simply a disgrace."
