Sometimes conservatives ask "What happened to Andrew Sullivan?" which is a fair question, but I also think it's fair to ask what the heck happened to Victor Hanson? The interesting classicist was somewhere replaced with a bland nose-picking partisan. I submit this column with its sophomoric Jekyll-Hyde conceit as evidence; it attempts to cast even the decisions that Hanson himself agrees with (such as keeping Gate as SecDef) as an indication of drastically divided Obama, a "scary" prospect.
I'd be willing to debate this, but I think there is plenty is evidence NR has become a ridiculous joke.
