The Spectator: Is Democracy Doomed?

[RangerCat67 at aol.com]

The latest issue features commentaries by such luminaries as Simon Heffer, 
Bruce Anderson, Mark Steyn and Roger Scruton. I was disappointed by Gore 
Vidal's apparent failure to file a witty and trenchant response to Anne 
Applebaum's review of his essay collection, The Last Empire, but no matter: 
Murdoch lobbyist Irwin Stelzer takes aim at Will Hutton's apparently 
anti-American The World We're In, and misses. It seems that saner Tories, 
such as the anti-war commentator Matthew Parris, have been given a week's 
vacation. But make no mistake, this one's a keeper.
