Comments on: “Is Conservatism Out of Gas?” – the NRE national take http://norunnyeggs.com/2007/06/is-conservatism-out-of-gas-the-nre-national-take-2/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Personally, I think a lot of the other takes (links <a href="http://norunnyeggs.com/?p=987" rel="nofollow">here for Week 1 plus Tom McMahon's 4-Block World version</a> and <a href="http://norunnyeggs.com/?p=1036" rel="nofollow">here for Weeks 2-4 plus Lance Burri</a>) were better than mine. What my little missive, plus my <a href="http://norunnyeggs.com/?p=1037" rel="nofollow">very-dark Wisconsin-specific</a> one, is meant as is a wake-up call. I tend to agree with you. This country has historically been center-right, so given an equal distance from the mythical "center" between a conservative and a liberal and everything else being equal, the conservative will have a natural advantage.

I actually think the further left Dims go in pursuit of the nomination, the harder it will be to recover for the general election though. Thinking Edwards especially. The others to a somewhat lesser extent. Conservatives however, would have to go pretty far-right, not to be able to recover. That is just my opinion. It's just that the far-far left appears to have much bigger mouths, so it seems like there's more of them. Very well written.
