    Is the Reagan revolution dead? From the courage of these Democratic convictions, it would appear not. If today's liberal storyline were correct, a proud "progressive" candidate should win voter acclaim with promises of higher taxes, government regulation, an encompassing health-care entitlement, protectionism and corporate-bashing. We can't know if that's the case, since the "progressive" Mr. Obama is doing such an excellent job of hiding those policies behind the conservative rhetoric of "choice," "tax cuts," "free trade" and "freedom."
  • spankaccount, on 08/29/2008, -0/+8When BO (thats how we need to refer to him) spoke about "tax cuts" because tax increases were a bad idea in a slow econmy I nearly fainted. BO wants to be Clinton and Reagen at the same time. I can't wait for the debates!
  • novaculus, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Strassel hits the nail on the head. Obama's campaign has been largely based on deception that would have made Alinsky proud.

    The question is, can the resultant illusion be maintained until the election? The ball of string is already beginning to unravel.
