@RameshPonnuru @McCormackJohn @Timodc @Peggynoonannyc Until this moment, I did not know how you voted. All I can say is that this was a time that seemed to me full of moral clarity, and I do not fully grasp how anyone else didn't see it that way. /1
@RameshPonnuru @McCormackJohn @Timodc @Peggynoonannyc As for for an approach to politics, I think fudging moral differences is how we got here. I thought one of the things we used to agree on as conservatives was this kind of moral clarity about people like, say, Bill Clinton. I thought that notion united us, once upon a time. /2
@RameshPonnuru @McCormackJohn @Timodc @Peggynoonannyc I also thought we were the people who had the courage to say "yes, 47 percent of the public can be totally wrong and I don't need to go figure out how to split the difference with them so that they don't feel bad about being wrong." /3
@RameshPonnuru @McCormackJohn @Timodc @Peggynoonannyc But maybe I misunderstood what we were as conservatives. /4x
