I am a firm believer in voting for the lesser of evils. Politics is all about compromise, not to mention INCREMENTALISM.
Incrementalism is how we got the Liberal culture of death, and is how we will get rid of it; NOT by demanding a 30-year development to be reversed in one election cycle.
Republican rule #1: is our candidate electable? If yes, run him. If no, like Bob Dole: HELL NO!"

You are extremely sensible. If we could only bottle it and give it away to those who need a good dose of it. I figure we need to re-elect Bush and get a filibuster-proof Republican majority into Congress for the next 20 years, to get rid of the activist liberal judges and change the tide. You are absolutely right about incrementalism -- it crept up on us, and we need to change it the same way, because it's not possible to put the genie back into the bottle -- at least not in one day.
