I find it somewhat odd that George Will would object to the characterization

conservatism by the childhood disappointment engendered by being a lifelong
Cubs fan, and that his boyhood friends, who were all Cardinals fans, became
what he himself called "happy liberals." :-)

Ah, but that was George Will the baseball writer, who is not to be taken seriously, as opposed to George Will the political commentator, who is ;-)
