Here is a sample:
"By the evidence of all polls, Americans are now looking more to government to provide, at least in health care, some of the security that employers used to offer. A recent Wall Street Journal-NBC News poll even showed that 59 percent of Republicans believe that foreign trade is bad for the U.S. economy, vs. just 32 percent who think it's good.
Somehow, news of this transformation has not reached the Republican candidates, who still rail against government assistance to help Americans pay for college and health care and offer glowing affirmations of free trade. Nor has it reached the Republican Party or the conservative movement more generally. The serious postmortems for President Bush's ultra-Reaganite and uber-Goldwateristic plan to privatize Social Security -- the questioning of the sanity of such a proposal at a time when employer-provided pension plans were dropping like flies -- have yet to be conducted in conservative circles. Indeed, Fred Thompson is still mumbling about cutting Social Security. Ol' Fred may have slept through 2005 -- the year of privatization's protracted stillbirth -- but did the entire party? "
