Conventional Wisdom: Old vs. New
Old Conventional Wisdom: Dick Cheney’s ability to amass power as vice president represented a threat to constitutional principles, the health of the Republic, cats, dogs, sunny days and general happiness.
New Conventional Wisdom: Joe Biden’s ability to amass power as vice president represents the opportunity to write a beat sweetener.
I am pretty sure that in the past, members of the media were far, far better at hiding their hypocrisy.
