"The End of the Right" or "Is Conservatism Finished?"

E.J. Dionne covers this in The Washington Post.

However, I'll state - as I do probably too often - that Bush and his ilk are NOT really conservatives. They latched onto the label and the media uses it, but tried-and-true Republicans do not think of the Bushies as conservatives anymore than Dems think of Hillary Clinton as a super progressive lefty (ha!).

I do not believe The Right or Conservatism is finished. I'd much rather to keep Conservatism around than the Bush "flavor" of it. And only the extreme right are the destroyers of this country.
