Why Andrew Sullivan is irrelevant

Not only is he no longer conservative, he doesn't understand conservatives anymore:

The conservative pundits are now referring to Ron Paul as a "crackpot." Hannity predictably savaged him last night (see above). The Hewitt site has an image of a man in a tin-foil hat; Dean Barnett and Hugh Hewitt both call for removing Paul from the debates, when he has been the best thing about them so far. Bill Benett wants him out. I'm getting the usual ridicule for taking him seriously from the usual GOP apparatchiks. They're scared, aren't they? The Internet polls show real support for him.

No doubt, millions of conservatives went to bed terrified by the spectre of Ron Paul's truthiness.
