AUDIO: DAVID FRUM VS. JOHN ZIEGLER

Truly a conservative boxing match between moderate David Frum and strong Sarah Palin advocate John Ziegler. Laura Ingraham moderates the debate impartially. If Frum has any regrets about the debate, it's the fact that he didn't read the book because several times after making a claim, Ziegler would respond by telling Frum to read the book. That tactic left Frum defenseless each time and he had to re-calibrate.

However, for a microcosm of the conservative vs. moderate movements, LISTEN to the interview. In the end, Frum comes across as deathly afraid of a Republican loss in 2012 and thinks Palin would guarantee one. Ziegler, conversely, comes across as an advocate for igniting the passion in the conservative movement almost as much as a Palin defender, especially toward the end when he smacks down Frum with a comment about the Republican party needing to support its warriors instead of its traitors.
