Message: Entry: A Paleo Epitaph Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/a_paleo_epitaph#22843 Post contents: Actually, while I will likely support a Barr candidacy (though his Fair Tax advocacy is troubling), he is in no way the sort of person to be the representative of any post-paleo movement. If post-paleoism in no way relates "movement conservatism" of years past as Mr. Gottfried suggests, then Barr is actually a poor choice. A former Republican Congressman most well known for the Defense of Marriage Act and leading the Clinton impeachment charge is in no way the transcendent figure such a movement needs...if in fact post-paleoism is what we are looking at. I am not so sure of this, and see Barr as the bridge between a younger generation of Paulites and an older generation of traditionalists. Barr actually has potential to bring in MORE voters than Paul because of this, but he is also less likely to spark a new movement for the same reasons. Dylan Sent at: 2008 05 15
