My criteria might be a bit different. I see MANY excellent things GWB has done. He has also failed to do some things I want him to do.

The point is...name ONE man...or ONE President...that could do EVERYTHING all want him to do? Even Reagan grew the budget, praised and increased the EITC....etc.

It is impossible to elect a person who will meet EVERY criteria, imo. But without the support of ALL of us, we will end up with another Clinton, or worse. And we know that will be an total disaster. It will take decades to rid ourselves of the damage done by Clinton. I don't want to see that damage compounded exponentially.

There is no viable choice at this point but to support the GOP. The Democrats MUST be defeated at all political levels.

I agree that the Democrats must be defeated at all levels. But I'm not sure what they will get us. The Republicans are proving more and more that they will support the same programs the Democrats supported just to get the vote. And when they do get elected and they do control Congress it is the same old thing - Socialism creeps on and more and more of my paycheck is confiscated to pay for it.

TLBSHOW is correct - George W. Bush, along with other Republicans, should have their feet held to the fire every time they vote for more socialist programs. I'm not saying we should support a 3rd party candidate or anything, or that there's any other Republican Party candidate that we should nominate instead of Bush, I'm just saying that socialism is socialism, it should be rejected in all of its forms, and that ANYONE - Republican or Democrat or whatever - who supports it should be spanked for doing it.
