Novak: Gingrich Will Be The Conservative Movement’s ‘Moses’»
Conservatives are reeling after Tuesday’s progressive victories, desperately insisting that the country remains center-right, holding secret soul-searching meetings, and floating the idea of a revived “Project for a New American Century” to help neocons in the wilderness.
