Obama The True Conservative

Over at The Daily Beast today, Reagan and Nixon speechwriter, Jeffrey Hart, discusses why Obama is the true conservative choice in this election. He makes a pretty good argument, saying Nixon and Reagan would have agreed entirely with Obama's now famous 2002 speech against the Iraq war, and that the conservative movement followed Bush off a cliff. 

He has a lot of praise for Obama's positions, pointing out their inherent conservative nature, and takes issue with the default conservative positions of the day. No matter the outcome, the Republican party is going to have a lot of retooling to do after Tuesday's election. If they want to survive they should be listening the ideas of common sense thinkers such as Hart.
