Who is a truly influential liberal mind in our culture? Whose ideas challenge and whose ideals inspire? Whose books and articles are read and passed around? There's no one, really. What's left is the laundry list: the catalogue of programs (some dubious, some not) that Republicans aren't funding, and the blogs, with their daily panic dose about how the Bush administration is ruining the country.
This thought- provoking paragraph is from a wonderful piece by Martin Peretz entitled "Losing our Delusions. Not Much Left" in New Republic Online.
A must-read if you are a Democrat.
