Oh I don't know about that - it's pretty compatible with a P.J. O'Rourke/fratboy view of the world. The right is also getting pretty clever about using spokesbabes - there was an article in Vanity Fair a month or two ago about all the hot young conservative women, and I saw a woman from the Christian Coalition on the Fox News Channel the other night who was wearing an extremely short skirt, revealing about an acre of thigh, as she talked about traditional values.
