“We've changed everything we believed in order to win elections. I think that you have to stand for principles or why be in politics?”- Mickey Edwards

This week on BILL MOYERS JOURNAL (KCET-TV)

What’s happened to the conservative movement in America? Conservatives Mickey Edwards and Ross Douthat discuss why they believe their movement has gone off track during the last eight years and what it means for the Republican Party. Douthat is senior editor at THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY and co-author of GRAND NEW PARTY, and Mickey Edwards is a former Republican Congressman and author of RECLAIMING CONSERVATISM.

Bill Moyers introduces Deepening the American Dream, a Web-only project at www.pbs.org/moyers that features essays and videos of some of Moyers’ notable guests laying out their vision for the future of the American dream.
