      Tossing radical chic accusations RE TNC shows cons haven't advanced their cultural critique any further than early 1980's Wolfe/PJ O'Rourke

      @DanaHoule Didn't Wolfe actually coined radical chic back in the early 1970s, I think.

      @DanaHoule Right, but Wolfe coined phrase and idea in this 1970 article: http://nymag.com/news/features/46170/ …

      @DanaHoule My only tiny point is that ideas they are recycling are not just 20 years old but 40 plus years old.

          @HeerJeet Still unclear why you think that’s contrary to what I wrote. I said any further than early 1980’s” not “entirely within the 1980s”

          @HeerJeet A lot of con cultural & social criticism in the 1970’s/1980’s was just expanding on radical chic, but it wasn’t complete in 1970

          @HeerJeet And it was politicized later, especially by Atwater in the 1988 campaign, but hasn’t really advanced much since then except to...
