What's Not The Matter With Kansas

Thomas Frank has joined The New Republic, now we know his fallibility - witness a sober clone of Christopher Hitchens further demean himself and forsake what could have been his dynamic role in any democratic sea-change in Kansas. Thomas Frank, damaged Johnson County petit bourgeois, a talented and witty writer idiotically willing to write for the highest bidder outside of his home state. He will never come home, again. Thank goodness.
