I'm still giving Bush a break.

If Bush is the nominee, then you either give him a break or you give his opponent a break. His opponent will neither lean to the right nor govern to the right. If we don't want to give Bush a break, then why do we bash Democrats?

A Democrat president with a Republican Congress will not move us any farther left than Bush is doing. The good cop/bad cop ploy is wearing thin.

When the "choice" was twiddle dee or twiddle dumb (Dole v Clinton)conservatives had no real choice. Dole was Clinton who never raped anyone that we know of. Clinton was no worse than Dole would have been.

If conservatives get to the point where they see Bush is as liberal as Dole he will be a one term president like his father and Carter.

The way to stop that is to get him to move to the right. I just don't think he will because he believes in big government. However, I believe he cares more about his political career than anything else and he can be moved to the right if he thinks he will lose the base.
