The inquest begins

Sunday, 9th November 2008

Rod Dreher eavesdrops on a post-election gathering of conservative deep thinkers. Seems the only bright spots, as far as they're concerned, are Palin and Joe the Plumber:

Like John McCain of last week, it appears this bunch has got 'em just where they want 'em. Heh. Honestly, this is the brain trust for the future of conservatism? The same folks that have been big players at the top of the movement food chain for lo, these many years? And they conclude that the problem with Republicans this year is that they weren't sufficiently Reaganist..? 

Man. Somebody take a snapshot of this moment.
