I must be doing pretty well if you're trying this tactic out for size.
The fact is candidates who embrace freer trade do better in elections than those who don't.
And how many people have even heard about the FTAA so far? Must be millions and millions, seeing as how Bush just couldn't stop talking about it during the campaign. < /sarc>
Oh, wait, we have Castro Communists (CISPES) right here at home who are against CAFTA. You are known by the company you keep.
Not even close. They're opposed to it for completely different reasons.
This, incidentally, explains why conservatives have so much trouble getting through to the public. Do you think the Castroites could give a flip less that some conservatives happen to agree with them? But for some reason, many conservatives react like a Victorian maid at the sight of a mouse, whenever they notice liberals agreeing with them. That allows the liberals to capture the mainstream and marginalize conservatives, each and every time.
Yes, you've done a good job convincing me you are a protectionist and an isolationist in the mold of Pat Buchanan.

My point exactly. This issue has no legs in this stellar economic environment. Protectionism is a hard sell during good times.

As evidenced by the recent ascension of liberals to publicly held offices like governorships, state legislatures, the presidency and congress? LOL
Liberals are clinging on to the judiciary but that too will slip their grasp in the near future. Face it, the public just doesn't share your paranoia about losing our sovereignty to a bunch of NGO's and other supranational organizations. If they did, 3rd parties would be doing better. They aren't. Sometimes I think all these debates are really nothing more than trying to find an issue to provide the impetus for a new political party.
