I think the political content from Sanford is overblown. I'm pretty conservative and don't like to be preached at from the left wing (in fact I'm personally boycotting baseball for obvious reasons), but that little bit of left wing politics in Sanford's last novel was really minor. It didn't even get my radar up. Anyway, all of us Flowers fans already know that he's always been a hippy with a gun (when he hasn't forgotten to take it out of his pickup truck).
