No, but a vote for the President doesn't require absolute unquestioning assent to wrong-headed policy. That's why there was revolt of Harriet Miers and why there is revolt now. It's what happens when you choose between the lesser of two evils at election time. A lot of conservatives are realizing that by constantly settling for half a loaf, they wind up with crumbs at the end of the day.

I wish I had a nickle for every time I've heard,"he promised" here on FR only to find out he never did. The beauty of our system is we have primaries and elections every scheduled time for the position. The Harriet Miers argument is really not a good one because she is not the first SC nominee that went through that type of rebellion then withdrawal but it seems as though President Bush is the only one that no one will give a break to on that issue.
