JUST POSTED ON TAP ONLINE: SCHLESINGER'S "OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS." Historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., who died last night at the age of 89, was, among many other things, a founding sponsor of The American Prospect who contributed several articles to the magazine over the years. His last piece for us, written immediately after George W. Bush's re-election in 2004 and predicting that "the lethal Republican combination of hubris and incompetence" would lead to the party's swift undoing, was notably prescient. It is reposted on our homepage today. Take a look.
