I hate to say this, but now I know Busch was not what he was supposed to be. We need a real republican conservative with teeth of iron and a lead backbone. No one on the horizon. What a bunch of whimps.

I came to that same conclusion about Bush long ago. He’s a fraud.

there are a number on the horizon. The only question is can they win with a party not committed to those ideals.

The reality is that no “real republican conservative with teeth of iron and a lead backbone” (if there was someone like that) could be elected in this current society. The majority of voters today want someone who makes them “feel” good gives them goodies. Not only are the politicians wimps, so are the voters.
