"Which is the other thing about the Beck/Limbaugh conservatives in Greenberg’s study: They are sectarian. Greenberg makes the key point that they think they have secret knowledge. All sectarians do. Those ultra-leftists who used to sit around arguing the fine points of Marx and Lenin did too. But if you have 'secret know-ledge', it’s very hard to communicate to those who, sadly, don’t know. The people in Greenberg’s focus group say they want to expand their numbers, but they’re too smug and certain about everything to really effectively do so."
Eugene Debs (pseudonym)
