I'd say citing "four months into scandals" is to apply the wrong baseline.  
And it's not just that Exhibit A, the Enron scandal, broke into full view 
last year.  What matters to me is that we're *one full generation* into the 
Reagan Revolution.  It's high time The People had all the rightwing 
shibboleths flushed out of their craniums.
