The comeback

The American Left can only dream of putting together this kind of impeccably managed and intellectually vibrant three-day event, one that covers practically every policy issue under the sun. There is no liberal equivalent of CPAC, not least because liberalism is increasingly bereft of ideas and short on innovative thinking. The spirit of political revolution is in the air in Washington, and the Left should take note. As a series of Gallup polls have categorically shown over the past few months, the United States is not only a conservative nation, but one that is becoming significantly more conservative in the face of the Obama administration. Conservatism is not the past for America, it is the country’s future.
