An excellent point! I keep scratching my head as to where all of the President's politcally savvy people were.

The only reason there are so many 'enraged' base types is because they are STUCK ON STUPID. This is a brilliant strategic pick, evidently WAY OVER THE HEAD OF KNEE-JERK, JOHHNY ONE-NOTE, NON-THINKERS!

Keep telling yourself that. Dividing the base is something that only your opponent should try to do.

Maybe it will dawn on you when you are standing in line to vote in 2006 and 2008 why there aren't as many conservatives HAULING THE WATER for your candidates any more. Maybe then you will look back on this and wish that the President had not been so politically stupid.

Stuck on stupid?

I would rather think a large percent of the base sees this for what it is. A very big slap in the face. If you do not stand and fight for your principles then you have no principles.
