Judge Posner and the Future of Conservatism

None other than Judge Posner weighs in here on what we're all discussing, the future of conservatism. Posner is a master of the artful distinction and while some may find his categorization of conservatives rather stark, I think the basic groupings are helpful in discussing future policy. Even though Posner "would be happy to see conservatism exit from the political scene–provided it takes liberalism with it," I think his points are important to consider as we move forward. For those who want a focused discussion of economic conservatism's future, see Becker's post here.
