Bush gambled away his base, so whose fault is that?

Most of the people who are complaining about Bush now weren't Bush fans in 2000 either, if they were even here then.

Heck, I wasn't a Bush fan myself - I voted for Keyes in the primary, and supported the Constitution Party when Keyes didn't get the nomination.

Do you mean those that are complaining on FR or those poll numbers that refect the discontent of conservatives with Bush? Because I did vote for him in 2000, and stood in the street's rallying for a couple of weekends in support, and voted for his Dad twice.

And so did many of the Freepers now complaining about Bush. And it isn't all about Bush. Bush, is a mere symptom of the problem conservatives now have with the Repubican Party in general even though he can be congratulated for bringing this inevitable split to fruition.

That's why Al Gore almost became your president. Geez.
