"One of the only ones"

Joe Lieberman wasn't "one of the only liberals in the Democratic Party." He had to be either "one of the few" or "the only liberal" but "one of the only liberals" is impossible.

As for whether it is "demagogue-ic" or "demagojic": I would stick with "demagojic" because with "demagogue-ic" you'll have a problem with "demagog-ical", which is easier to pronounce "demagojical".

Do other conservatives prefer the fifty-year-old spellings I do? Like, "catalogue", which once was the only correct spelling, but then we got too lazy to put those last two letters on the end and dropped them on the excuse that they were unnecessary. I suppose it's just as easily read without the "-ue" but I don't like it. I also prefer "queue" because "que" is a different word from a different language and reads differently (if you're literate) and "cue" is a different word altogether besides being insufferable. I suspect that hating this kind of transition-cue-to-laziness is one of the symptoms of my underlying conservatism. But then, I didn't like it even when I was eagerly liberal, either.
