I read Daily Beast for mush of my news because I like the tone and because there aren't many conservatives left who don't deal exclusively in hate (Hannity Rush etc) I actually used to consider myself a conservative but I can't reconcile their embrace of ignorance nor their dismissal of a changing word. Anyway Meghan McCain wrote an interesting piece on the old guard's disregard for the internet

Today Michael Steele said, "I don't do 'cutting-edge.' That's what Democrats are doing. We're going beyond cutting-edge." I would say that the party also has a problem with irony.

Jindal really sounded Childish to me but beyond that I pretty much write off someone who embraces Intelligent Design but especially when they have a Biology degree from Brown for pre-med. You have to wonder what coming out of his mouth he honestly believes in and what he is saying only for political gain. Yes I know all politicians are FOS but he presents the his lack of character and believability so openly
