Invasion of the Party Snatchers

Goldwater's speechwriter, Vic Gold, has a new book out called "Invasion of the Party Snatchers" that discusses how the NeoCons and the Religious Right destroyed the Republican Party. Bill Moyers recently interviewed him here. It was a powerful interview, and well worth watching. Agree or disagree, it's compelling stuff, and says something about how far afield we've traveled from where we were. Today's "conservatives" bear NO resemblance to Barry Goldwater, or, I would argue, even Ronald Reagan. Vic Gold's take on it? He figures that Ron Paul is the only one that Goldwater would even recognize as his style of conservative. And he figures Goldwater wouldn't even want to be part of such as system as today's.
