Quote:I am talking about the S&H model not M&T. They are different.
I know what you are talking about. I was referencing Britain's 4T during that period, which on the homefront wasn't particularly dramatic. There was what, the Crimean War (pushing towards the 3T/4T boundary), the Indian Mutiny (which didn't really affect the average Britain) and... what?
Quote:Of course things will change. Obama's world was different from Clinton's and Bush II's different from his father's (as he found out).
What I am pointing out is the possibility that the country doesn't change according to T4T model.
Which would preclude an endless repetition of Bush, Obama, Bush, Obama, which is what I was arguing against. As to the notion that T4T would be a dud? Sure, it's possible. I don't see why you're so fixated on it, though, other of course than disappointment that Obama's presidency didn't seem to realign the country the way you might have hoped.
So what do you really want to talk about? What if nothing happens?
