Speaking as one generally identified (simplistically, but understandably) as having a right-wing perspective, I certainly hope so – this isn’t the first time that the poverty of his blogging has (I hope only peripherally) undermined more thoughtful, more careful, and, I hope, infinitely more effective right-of-centre bloggers.
