wish someone would post something conservative Lance said or did so that it would make his victory even more special.

Lance on the War in Iraq:

"...In my opinion it's not really the place of an athlete to take a position here. And I do think there should be a strong delineation from sports, war, diplomacy, and politics. I am getting asked this question repeatedly over here because a) I'm an American like the President, b) I'm a Texan like the President, and c) I am a friend of the President's. The war seems to be very unpopular here (lots and lots of protests) and it's normal that the press tries to get a quote regarding this. "What I will say, and have said many times, is that NOBODY wants a war. Not me. Not President Bush. Not Tony Blair. No one... but sometimes it may be unavoidable. I absolutely support the President and absolutely support our troops."

Thanks, Nit, I really enjoyed reading what Lance said in your post. Also heard that President Bush had called and congratulated him, so I'm sure it was well received.

Well -- which is it? #13 sounds pretty convincing.

If he is conservative, or even so inclined, Karl Rove should get him to the Convention ASAP.

I think any American who spends time in France would return more conservative than before they went.

It's difficult to understand just how deep our American roots run until we leave them.
