PS: the polls are slanted....

[LS]

1) I don't think the polls are slanted much. But even if they are some, there is an overwhelming sentiment out there on this case, and if you tailor new legislation, you'll be surprised how far away it is from what you want---then you're going to have to live with it . . . or die with it.

2) All the people I talk to---including MANY fundamentalist Christians---are on the other side of this, and they KNOW the issues. They aren't fooled.

We as conservatives, above all, should know that the public generally knows the score. They knew it in the 2004 election, and they knew it in this case. It's a very bad habit to think that the "peeps" are stupid just because they don't agree with you.
