George W. Bush cannot be all things to all men, but he can fill a large measure of what a majority of voters want. Part of the problem is that the assortment of wants and needs varies from person to person, and one size cannot fit all. But Bush can only offer a limited range of sizes, without running into limitations of contradictions and inconsistencies. So long as the Democrats do not actually deliver any of the promises they make, they may promise the moon over and over, to diverse constituencies. The astonishment here should be directed at those constituencies that have been disappointed again and again, still casting their affections and votes for the Democrats, who cannot deliver on their dreams. Perhaps they just have the wrong dreams.
