36. You're projecting more power
onto the "neocons" than they actually hold. But beyond that, elections in this country have always been riddled with fraud and vote suppression. But back to the neocons. Whenevever people feel disenfranchised and beleaguered, they look for a group to focus all the blame on. Hey, don't get me wrong, I find
Straussian political philosophy despicable, but I don't see the fabled cabal of neocons as an insurmountable obstacle. Like any other group that wields a degree of influence, their day will pass. Public opinion invariably, if slowly, really does change the course of American Policy. Yes, it's often tragically late, but as they say; better late then never.
