"And it may be that President Bush will usher in a new era of traditional conservatism."

If this 'new era' refers to a period of time where 'conservatism' means pro-borrow and spend, pro-massive entitlement programs, pro-socialist security, pro-foreign welfare, pro-open borders, pro-illegal immigration, pro-deficit, anti-individual rights, anti-privacy, anti-gun, and sucks up to our enemies (Putin, China, Saudi Arabia, etc), then count me out of it. I must be one of those oddball oldtimers who still thinks that small government, individual rights, securing our borders, and balanced budgets are the way to go. Silly me.
