If a featured speaker at the Democratic National Convention doesn’t have a right to define what it means to be a conservative, we don’t know who does.

We’ll leave you with this thread from AEI visiting scholar Jay Cost, who actually kind of knows what it means to be a conservative:
Reminder that, rather than drop out in 2016, this guy tried to draft behind Trump and Cruz. He never attacked Trump, and dropped out the day Cruz did. https://t.co/y6Miin9l1n

Also, he ran as a moderate in 2016 but as the conservative's conservative in 2000.
And he talked about a new tone in 2016, but he's actually self-righteous and very, very crabby.

Also, his dad may have been a mailman, but after he left the House he cashed in with a job at Lehman Brothers.

Don't let any politician lecture you about virtue, civic or otherwise. Never ever ever.

That’s very good advice.
