There is no such thing as a "moderate" anything!
You either believe in something, or you don't. If you say "Yes, but ..." you are no more that a weak liar with NO principles.
No principles? Maybe that is why the MSM, democrats, and RINOs love "moderates"
Disagree. For example, to the question "do you believe in President Bush," I might say "yes, but..."
I believe in him, because I think he's the right person to fight the war on terror, to reform taxes, etc...plus I think he's a good, genuine person. But I don't like the spending that's happened under his watch, or a myriad of other things he supports. That's a perfectly principled position.
