Provacative piece by @mattklewis: "For what shall it profit a man if he should win the election, but lose his soul?" http://bit.ly/1a5bJiG
@janmatch @dandarling true. The left is more utopian. But my point is conservatives are now aping the left...

@mattklewis@janmatch@dandarling Rise of Tea Party was direct aping tactics of 60s left, and 60s left tore the Democratic Party in two. -
@billscher@mattklewis@janmatch@dandarling Was the New Left successful over the long term? -
@joshuamercer@mattklewis@janmatch@dandarling I'd argue late 60s left led to Nixon, lengthened Vietnam, and damaged Dem brand for 25 years -
@billscher@mattklewis@janmatch@dandarling True. But wouldn't they counter that they achieved most of their social liberal goals? -
@joshuamercer mainly referring to Yippie/antiwar forces that destroyed '68 convo. Other organizing (MLK, women rights, LGBT) more successful
