Conservatives - good with the way things are

Radical - Wants change, and wants it quick, by any means necessary!

A former advisor of Franklin D. Roosevelt's, Rexford Tugwell, skillfully uses the example of a community's need for a new train station to illustrate the difference between liberals and radicals: "Liberals would like to rebuild the station while the trains are running; radicals prefer to blow up the station and forego service until the new structure is built." One might add that conservatives would prefer to keep the old station, being satisfied with it, while reactionaries would abandon the station entirely since they do not approve of trains in the first place.
