It's clear that the massive rightward shift in this 
country has robbed anyone of the opportunity to build
anything meaningful politically that is more ambitious
than the "lesser of two evils". 

Faced with this impotence, Ralph has decided that, like 
some misbehaving schoolchild, he is going to make his
mark with destruction since there is no other method
available. 

What's sad is that his "intellectual" bases are now
a very familiar part of the vocabulary - they have been 
for thirty years - and he makes the mistake of assuming
that the country as a whole (and really, the lefties in 
it) are as dimwitted as his malnourished zealots, to whom
he has to repeatedly explain simple concepts.
