In Campaign 2004, liberal activists mobilized to an unprecedented degree, creating brand-new behemoth political action organizations and injecting more money into liberal candidacies and causes than had ever been spent before in any election. These developments are analyzed in a readable new book by National Review White House correspondent Byron York titled The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy: The Untold Story of How Democratic Operatives, Eccentric Billionaires, Liberal Activists, and Assorted Celebrities Tried to Bring Down a President--and Why They'll Try Even Harder Next Time. TAE's Karlyn Bowman recently sat down with York. Following are excerpts from their conversation.
