I'll Have What He's Having...

Jacob Sullum is on board with some fairly right-minded libertarian thinking about the big-government GOP. I've beat that drum multiple times in the past, of course. A couple of notable nuggets from Sullum's article: Bush is now a bigger spender that LBJ, at least in discretionary spending (probably the best measure). And there is empirical evidence that divided government restrains the rate of government spending. All good reasons to go punch the big "D" next Tuesday. I just hope we haven't been set up for a big "miracle comeback by Rovian wizardry" story. If that happens, I guess I just throw up my hands and walk away. Or maybe just throw up.
