These three can't call for less government spending, they can only call for more! Bush can claim that compared to what, say, an Edwards might offer, he is the model of restraint.

Who, in hell, is going to believe that?

Most voters. Especially since it will have the virtue of being true. Compared to the Dems, Bush will look moderate.

You win campaigns by appealing to the middle voter while holding on to your base. You do not win campaigns by running on Pat Buchanan's platform.

Be Seeing You,

Apparently not you, but thinking like yours has never advanced one conservative issue. Too advance an issue or an agenda, you have to be elected. All recent polls show President Bush holding a 90% approval among Republicans. These people are his base, not the LP or the Constitution Party. Do you seriously think if President Bush goes down in defeat, it will advance any of your issues? The dims will take a one vote victory, and turn it into a mandate for all things liberal.(including Judges)
