The best quote I’ve read from the late conservative columnist comes from the Washington Times<\/a>;<\/p>\n

\n

Look, I’m not David Broder, Mr. Novak told the Washington Monthly in a 2004 profile. I’m not one of the real good guys. They try to make things nicer. That’s not my deal.<\/p>\n

Mr. Novak contended that he began his career as a moderate, becoming more conservative only because of the impact of his reporting on his political ideas.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
