...Finally, while the central thesis of “Enough?? is certainly persuasive, it is not very original. Black intellectuals, like economists Thomas Sowell ’58 and Glenn Loury, have been making Williams’ arguments for years.

...Tories. The party’s suicidal revolutionaries prefer ideological purity to victory. Together, they want to march lockstep over the electoral cliff again, only further than last time. Armed with the evergreen excuse “we lost last time because we weren’t right-wing enough??—three Euro-skeptic, anti-immigration, tax-cutting campaigns notwithstanding—the deluded would-be martyrs argue for more of the same.
