If there has been one thing that the right has been wildly successful at, it's 
moving the Overton window to the right.  The looniest of the right-wing on-air 
personalities have pushed acceptable ideas farther to the right than they've 
ever been.

The left hasn't been very effective in pushing the window back to the left 
because for a while we haven't really had any highly-visible crazies to push 
dialog back in the other direction.
