THEY'LL NEVER STOP PREDICTING THIS, AND IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN (updated)
As the 2008 presidential campaign was getting underway, Very Smart People predicted that some Republican (other than Ron Paul) would break from the pack and turn against George W. Bush's Iraq War. We were told that this would be a shrewd, savvy way for the apostate to distinguish himself from the rest of the field, and it would align the apostate with public opinion, which had turned sharply negative on the war. I said it would never happen. It never happened. It was obvious that it would never happen. Supporting the Iraq War was a key part of Republican tribal solidarity. People on... read more
