I'm sorry but one's twilight zone is another's smart politics.
JMO, OWK you are never going to find your perfect candidate and your perfect politcal enviroment. It is literally a political jungle out there, and you have to do what you can to survive.
And in the political jungle you don't make yourself an easy target.
If you toss out the Constitution all we have left is "smart politics"
Then our Right's are as ambiguous as the term "smart politics"
And when that happens, what hope do we have left?
Dane:
If the GWB domestic policy to date is "smart politics" it is an indicator that the President and his advisors must truly be convinced that conservative principles will never resonate with the American public.
And if that's true, I can't find a really good reason for conservatives to support him.
