There may be lots to like about Ed Markey. But do we really need another octogenarian in office? I get that the word 'senate' comes from a Latin root meaning 'elder.' But this is taking the notion too far.

The problem isn't conservatism -- that's an important political principle. The problem is what's become of the Republican Party, which bears no resemblance to conservatism. In a coherent political community, conservatism is a form of liberalism.
