Today at theamericanconservative.com, Daniel Larison punctured neocon fears and realist hopes for Robert Zoellick’s putative influence over Romney, Scott Galupo saw the Romney campaign’s pivot on health care as an effort to connect with women, and Noah Millman went another round on Yglesias and stupid tax policy. Elias Crim wrote in praise of culture without wars, and Rod Dreher appraised politically correct history.

Drones remade war, foreign policy hawks counted on Romney’s weakness, and good writing beat good food.
