A Georgia Democrat who's adamently and openly proclaimed his strong allegiance to the Democratic party while having denounced various groups who'd expressed hope for a flip over was the most Conservative candidate at the Republican Convention. [Besides our President].

Small wonder that some on the far right are leaving our party for third parties such as the Constitution party. I'm certainly not anywhere near far right, but why not include at least one Conservative Republican at the convention to satisfy those who have stronger Conservative view within our party?

In 2000 it seemed to be minority speakers, in 2004 it's moderate speakers, what's up for 2008?

We need more Democrats, and more Republicans, like Zell Miller.

Miller's speech was wonderful.

But I ask you this, who are the two most important speakers slated for the RNC?

Bush and Cheney, obviously.

Perhaps excepting Miller, who are the two most conservative speakers at the RNC?

Bush and Cheney.

Aren't those two more important then however many moderates are sent up to speak?
