Click here to visit the new home of Politics Daily!The debate over the heart and soul of conservatism continues, and the latest skirmish is apparently between neoconservative David Frum and yours truly. Frum, it seems, was offended by my recent comments about conservatism on Bloggingheads, an online talk show where bloggers debate the issues of the day.
