Jack Frost /p> p> Your observation that Iowans delivered Hillary a major victory twists a filthy stick in an already infected stomach wound. More gut wrenching is the pious joy of the faithful who bestowed this gift of God on her (and us). Don't expect their blind love and hate to become eyes that see just because the country desperately needs real leadership to win the coming battles and the raging war. We need them, but their hallelujah chorus may well continue until taxes double, amnesty blesses 30 million, and homeland security is a nostalgic memory. br> -- Jeff Lawrence /p> p> VICTORY OR BUST br> Re: Jeffrey Lord's Victory, Not Bipartisanship : /p> p>Jeffrey Lord's essay was informative, inspiring, and ultimately, unavailing. What he yearns for is virtuous, necessary even. A return to the gutsy,principled Conservatism of our fathers would be an exhilarating and restorative elixir for our political and national ailments. But the flaw in his entreaty is this: the message needs a carrier. And if we have one this cycle, at least as far as Iowa instructs us, he ain't gonna make it. br> -- James Eaton
