The American Conservative magazine.

The American Conservative (TAC) is a biweekly magazine founded by Scott McConnell, Pat Buchanan, and Taki Theodoracopulos, and edited by McConnell. It is intended to represent a traditionalist, anti-war and paleoconservative voice against the dominance of what its publishers see as a neoconservative establishment. The American Conservative began publishing in 2002. The magazine's editorial stance is differentiated from other conservative movement publications in its opposition to George W. Bush's interventionist foreign policy and his liberal immigration and trade policies.

TAC decided not to endorse any candidate in the 2004 presidential campaign, but instead used its pages to offer the case for various candidates - with Buchanan for Bush, McConnell for John Kerry, and various third party candidates covered as well. It is believed that Mr. Buchanan stepped down as Editor of the magazine because of wide opposition to his endorsement of President Bush, leaving Scott McConnell to replace him. While McConnell had been acting as editor in chief of the magazine from the beginning, Buchanan’s name attracted more readers; hence, the title was originally his.
