One of the really interesting things about the blog The Next Right is how closely it echoes liberal laments from early-2005. But where liberals were sadly marveling over the Right’s physical infrastructure (Heritage, Fox News, the Olin Foundation), now conservatives are staring up at the Left’s electronic infrastructure. But the complaints are much the same: They pay people to do things! They’re more ruthlessly efficient! They’re more tightly connected with each other! It always makes me think of an interview Bill Kristol gave to Jon Stewart, where he said something like, “don’t worry Jon. The worm will turn. It always does.
