I'm sure President Bush is shaking in his boots, after all he may lose a half-dozen votes to malcontents calling themselves "conservatives" who generate pent-up anger and frustration because Bush isn't conservative enough.

The only way these people will be satisfied is if one of the Founders can be somehow magically brought back to life and run for President again.

LOL! Somehow I doubt even one of the original founders would live up to their expectations.

Nah they would find something like Ben Franklin starting the Post Office or the part in Alexander Hamiltion's hair is wrong to scream that the sky is falling.

No, I just want the current GOP to stop compromising on so many issues and start sharing the same values and principals the Founders had. I guess that is hard though when most of the GOP think that the American form of government is a Democracy, and would rather compromise and increase the strength of the Federal government so they can stay in power.

So you think that a President who gave us the largest entitlement program in almost 40 years, imposed steel tarrifs, sponsored and signed a massive farm-subsidy bill, apologized to Red China after they shot down our airplane, signed a clearly unconstitutional campaign finance "reform" bill that violates the freedom of speech, vastly increased the Federal role in education (for which there is NO Constitutional provision), attacked conservative Republicans for "balancing the budget on the backs of the poor" for trying to change the Earned Income Tax Credit from an annual to a monthly payment, who has increased Federal spending to an all-time high and given us record deficits, and who has done so many other things that liberals like is "conservative enough"?

I certainly don't.

I'm not getting the bitterness towards third party candidates. I don't get it, are you against the candidates in particular, or just the concept of anyone but the Democrats or Republicans being allowed to run?

I'll never get the hard-on some conservatives have for third party candidates who "don't matter anyway and have 10 supporters."
