While I'm sympathetic with your take, I'd ask you to consider the state of the union had Al Gore won the Presidency in 2000, or Kerry in the 2004. No tax cuts, probably large tax increases. More appeasement to terror, with probably several more terrorist attacks on America. No national missile defense in the face of North Korean and Iranian (and let's not forget Saddam's Iraq) weapon development. Full speed ahead for cultural degradation (abortion, stem cell research, "gay" marriage). More "Elian Gonzales" decisions. Economic malaise on a terrible scale after the collapse of stock market and 9/11. Adoption by executive order of the essence of the Kyoto protocol. Et cetera. Just things to consider.
Lastly, let's begin to work now to nominate and elect political candidates who more nearly reflect conservative principles in future elections.
Don't misunderstand. I did not want either of those to happen.
I'm just talking ~day to day life~. Is it really any different than it was 8 years ago?

good points. What many don't realize is that while we may criticize Bush on domestic policies, we are keenly aware that electing somewhat like Kerry would be disastrous beyond words. We do indeed need to pick leaders that truly believe in reduced government spending.
