In a sense yes, he campaigned in 2000, on No Child Left Behind, Free Drugs for Seniors...guess you werent listening You're right, I wasn't listening. I was one of those "broken glass" Republicans who would do anything to repudiate the Clinton/Gore's. Since my precinct was one of the last counted, my vote was probably one of the 500+ that put him over the top.
I didn't vote in 2004, but probably would have if it was close due to the terrorism issue. I won't vote again or contribute to the GOP until they get their act straight.

Well given that they won and had a record year for fundraising in 2004 without your support, I'd say youre basically irrelevant.

That'll show'em!! C'mon, Moonnman, quit throwing your tantrum!! Most of the people who visit FR, these days, have pretty strong disagreements with Bush, but we don't take our toys and go home. It is critically important that we send the message to all who currently represent us and those who want to replace Bush that our votes are not automatically theirs for the taking. We have expectations and criteria they must meet to EARN our vote. That means, they have to start meeting conservative principles and start slashing the Bloated Bush Budget and start trimming the fat out of government (just getting rid of Teddy (hick!) Chappaquiddick would be a great beginning!).
I agree that the current 'Pubbie respresentation is a huge disappointment, but WE are the ones who have to tell them what the metrics are if they want to keep their job. If we don't tell them, they don't know what we want and they will continue to do what the MSM tells them.
