>-Chip "Capon Rising" Berlet
You're self-identifying as a castrated chicken? This may not be the best advertisement for your position!
This is not the early 1980s, when right-wing power was young, the ideology sounded fresh, their forces were united, and Reagan commanded considerable public affection. Now the right is very familiar, tired, divided, and Bush is far from liked. So I don't get what you think is relevant from the early 1980s. Could you elaborate?
