Liberalism, is it a mental disorder? Savage Nation broadcaster thinks so.

Nice post, those are important distinctions to be made. Personalities account for much in politics, whether one is an egghead or not, and ideological revolutions are closely tied to the characters who advocate them. Timing and circumstance (”The structure of political life…”) are just as important too. Nice post again.

Right on. From the outside looking in, I see very little ideological difference between Republicans and Democrats. The same thing has happened in Britain – the present difficulties of the Tory party can be in part explained by the fact that they find it difficult to distinguish themselves from New Labour ideologically.
Which perhaps makes some of the invective that each party uses of the other (on both sides of the Atlantic) just a little ridiculous.
