Are Conservatives Finally Back?

It has been a long time since I dared to feel as exuberant for a conservative revival in America as I do right now. 

The Republican nominee for vice president is the most intellectually developed conservative on a major party ticket in the last three decades. Corporate America, for the first time in years, seems to understand that half the country doesn’t want their beverage company to be a full-fledged culture warrior. Families are turning their backs on universities that offer debt and dysfunction rather than knowledge and skills.

Still, that optimism is tempered by the depth of our nation’s challenges and the feeling that time is running out.
