Well said areafiftyone - very well said.
Right now the issues for 2008 will be:
- The World
- The borders
- Our security
- Social Security
- Health care
The issues will not be:
- Abortion
- Gay rights
- The second amendment
(these are big issues - but there is simply not the urgency
on them compared to little things like war, terror, WMD, etc.)
My opinion.
A) It is composed exclusively of Giulianiesque wishful thinking.
B) The criteria you list could be adopted by any Democrat.
