Re: How Can Royal Win (none / 0)
Yes, something like that.
Of course, the United States is not vulnerable to the violent, total closing-down of the system that followed Mussolini's march on Rome or Hitler's roundup of political prisoners. Our democratic habits are too resilient, and our military and judiciary too independent, for any kind of scenario like that.
Give Naomi Wolf an A in civics.

I didn't say I thought she'd done it well.

And I'd be more impressed, frankly, if she'd made these points in an American newspaper rather than a British one.  But that is unlikely to happen, for reasons that probably have less to do with Naomi Wolf than with American newspapers....
