That's the case Slate's Jonah Weiner builds in his his piece, "I Want to GOP to There." He lays out a thesis that "[Jack Donaghy and Liz Lemon's] head-butting doubles as an argument about the viability of liberal ideals and the allure of a pragmatic, colder-eyed conservatism," but laments that, as an audience, "we seem meant to accept Liz's Jack-ward drift, if not cheer it on outright, as part of her maturation."
