If a "moderate" republican can only win by 532 votes against the most socialist candidate/Gore in our history why do so many around here believe that a "red meat" conservative is just what the doctor ordered? When every issue poll showing voter concerns are for INCREASING spending on healthcare, education, Social Security/Medicare and all of the other "social" services, where is the hidden groundswell for cutting those programs? Make the electorate conservative and the government will become conservative.

Make the electorate conservative and the government will become conservative.

The mob and the demagogue will triumph in the end. But Reagan held them back for a while.
