George Will is a complex guy, but he likes himself just fine. One of his quotes is poignant.
"I suppose there's a melancholy tone at the back of the American mind, a sense of something lost. And it's the lost world of Thomas Jefferson It is the lost sense of innocence that we could live with a very minimal state, with a vast sense of space in which to work out freedom."
That's how I feel. But now Will is all for letting Zohran Mamdani win...to teach New Yorkers a lesson, on how bad it can get when you elect a Communist. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't let a baby put his hand on a hot stove just to teach him not to.
When you come down to it, we're all New Yorkers, and it's our responsibility to protect it. Letting Mamdani win isn't a good way to do it..
Hang tough.
