Interesting that you believe that they've moved right. I sorta think they've (particularly the opinion pages) moved left, especially with regards to social issues.

> I guess that probably says something about our politics too

I was gonna agree with you and then I thought that in fact, it should be possible to place someone's politics on a scale that is independent of the observer. Keynesian is to the left of supply-side economics for instance. Social issues are on their own scale.
