acorn is right-wing?
nic 02/07/2010 22:06:08 Posts:723	I'm playing the devils advocate here and looking at the situation from a conservative perspective. If you want to usher in the next "conservative revolution" ala Reagan, Thatcher, et cetera, populism is not the way to do it. I feel like populism is classically a tool of the left.
