An ongoing discussion about conservatism in New Jersey.
NJ: Ground zero of a GOP revival?
Harp Amar  (January 18, 2010, 7:23 pm)

The timing of tomorrow's inauguration in New Jersey could overlap with a stunning GOP Senate victory in Massachusetts, providing some ammunition to those whose might want to start tracing a national GOP revival to the northeast.

There is little doubt that this administration has strong conservative philosophical underpinnings on key issues such as fiscal management and education reform. A lot of how much actually gets implemented is now a matter of both execution as well as how the political landscape shifts over the coming months.

However, the prospects for redefining a nationally viable GOP on the back of unambiguously conservative beliefs (i.e. school vouchers) makes being a "Jersey Conservative" suddenly a very fashionable item after a long period of political exile.
