A Bellow From Stage Right

“Dad?!” my teenage daughter’s face reflected a queasy mixture of surprise and instinctive revulsion. “Is it true? Are you really a . . . Republican?”

She uttered the word as if it were a deadly disease that she could catch just by naming it. “I’m a conservative,” I corrected her.
