Orthodox or not, I find that, and what I know of Webb, pretty creepy. Sounds like a pretty flee-floating populism to me, as easily attached to "illegal immigrants" (which Webb name-checks in that article) as to the wealthy or elites.
And Just's squishiness aside, resentment is still a pretty poor and dangerous foundation for politics, based on and tied to a reaction as it it. If you don't believe me, ask Mink Snopes.
