Would you vote for him right now? or would you vote for Gore or Nader?

First off, I would never vote for Gore or Nader. But I'm sure you knew that. I'd vote for Bush again because he's done a great job on foreign policy, but I'd be under no disillusions that I'd be getting a conservative in the White House. The 11% budget increase solidified my opinion on his handling of domestic policy, if CFR wasn't enough. The latest national ID support our of the WH only serves to support my opinion.

I don't think he campaigned as a staunch right wing conservative either. There is nothing more I would love to see is a conservative that was able to ignore the left, but I would be dreaming, George W. Bush ran as a moderate and I don't believe he would of got much more votes than Pat Bucannon recieved if he ran on a true conservative platform. Now that he is in office it's rediculous to think that he should now all of a sudden align himself with the CATO institute and the Libertarian movement, (if it can be called that anymore) seems the Libertarian Party has hit rock bottom and showing signs of digging as of late.

I am a realist and I'm very glad he won the election and I will wait on these unsettled issues before I condemn him for them. I refuse to join the belly acher's around here who do nothing but bash this President, I could get on the roof and scream outloud over him signing the education bill, but I won't give up on him, Even Ronald Reagan had to face the fact that he was the President of all the people and not just the base of his party. And I think George W. Bush is just doing what every other republican president has had to do once elected. But I will say that I would rather have George W. Bush signing that education bill than Al Gore. And I have deep suspicions of those who do nothing but post negative articles about the president and claim they are patriots, I believe that some of them are DNC hacks trying to divide the republican party.
