19th century; “reform” acquired its modern definition of “making an institution more leftist” with the “Great Reform Act” of 1832.

ala Moldbug, reform was a perfectly decent word until the 20th Century got hold of it.

“reform conservative”
I like that, it’s like “reform Judaism”.

“Reform” is such a horrible word, it makes me think of the “reformed” House of Lords.

Yes, I almost linked that — before getting distracted. It’s great.

As an extra reward for following the link, we get a guest editorial by Steven Den Beste on how insane the Cathedral is.

People voted for Nixon in 1968, after his humiliation in 1960, but we had a different electorate then. However, Ace’s analysis probably extends into the Republican primary electorate – Romney probably can’t be nominated. Because even among Republicans who either don’t care about “likable”, or who think Romney *is* likable, being a loser is a pretty big handicap. They’ll vote for someone who says the same things as Romney, as long as it’s not Romney.
