That says it all for me. Bush is using Clinton tactics without Clinton savvy. :(
COULTER: And as you were saying in your opening[applause]you don't want your base turning against you. I mean, this was at least something Bill Clinton had the political wisdom to figure out: when you're on the ropes, you turn to your base. You don't screw your base. [laughter] [applause]Map Kernow: That says it all for me. Bush is using Clinton tactics without Clinton savvy. :(
Ooops! Re-read your highlighted coulter quote in light of your follow-up comment.
Nowhere in coulter's quote does she say "Bush is using Clinton tactics." In fact, she is suggesting that Bush should be more like Clinton by turning to his base when he's in trouble.
In other words, your side wants Bush to be more like Clinton.
That says it all for me about your side.
You missed the point she made without meaning to. Clinton would cave to his base. Bush will stand on principle.
Bush KNOWS this nominee will be a great Supreme Court Justice. Even if he is completely 100% wrong, he is certain she will be good. He is a long-range thinker. If he can get her on the bench, NONE of this sniping will matter to him. The Bench is the MOST IMPORTANT THING, and he is absolutely sure she is the answer to our problems.
