He has every right to be melancholic. It was clear to him, as it was to us, that this was an existential election.....and that the Republicans had better fight for it as if it was about the existence of our [now, once] Free Republic. Instead we got NRO-Rovesians opting for that pathetic Beltway "conventional wisdom". Now? Now the nation begins its slouching to Golgotha.
An election about dancing freaking horses and big fat birds. Bottom line of Pepean philosophy:
This is the Achilles heel of a democracy. Politicians simply tax those who do not support them and give the money to those who do. Or give the money to those they would like to have support them. It is the end of the line. Game over.

As some guy from North Adams once said, A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within.
Spengler was too much of an optimist.
