I often read a blog titled “What’s Wrong with the World” which deals in topics of philosophy, politics, culture, and many other issues under the sun. The title is influenced by G.K. Chesterton, a great thinker that we all should know something about, whose clear writing influenced a generation like C.S. Lewis and others.

In the current condition of our political landscape, we Republicans could say that we are in exile, captivity, or wandering in the wilderness. We hear things like “conservatism in exile” on the Sean Hannity Show and “refounding America” on the Glenn Beck Program. Witnessing this phenomenon in the news and also from the R.N.C. leadership harping on the need for a bigger tent, the question of who will lead the Republican Party in 2010 and 2012 haunts the airwaves.
