In a quavering saloon tenor he sang My Old Kentucky Home; then, unshorn silver locks and hand-woven toga flying, he launched into a frantic soft-sandal jig. The Dior-dressed segment of the crowd dug it deep. But the modern beats, obviously distressed that no food and no smoking were allowed, did not get the scene at all.

Though they have made dramatic gains in by-elections during the past year, the Liberals have been dismissed as a party of protest that is still...
