It can if we loose 2008.
Better chance of winning if Republican candidates become real conservatives. Not that they're all bad - I don't expect perfection. But we could use some real courage here. Appeasing wimps are starting to make me want to hurl. I expect Democrats to be appeasing weasels and leftist perverts. But it sure would be nice to have a viable alternative.
Of course, I live on the west coast so I'm a little bitter.
