If there's no cost for a broken promise or a bad policy, what leverage is left?

You and I did not use the leverage thing in '92 and we were correct. Unfortunately, enough voters took the leverage thing seriously....and screwed us all for at least a generation. This country can take only so much leveraging.

This country can only take so much of the GOP advancing the causes of the Democrats, losing votes and elections in the process.

My vote is the President's to lose, but it can be lost. Aside from his road map nonsense, his foreign policy has been good. Unfortunately, Bush has pursued a number of ill-advised domestic policies. Still I'd hold my nose and vote for him tomorrow. However, if he gets the Amnesty for Illegals that he so clearly wants, then I'm done with him. That's a line I won't cross with this or any President.

I believe that he's lose a lot of votes if he did that, not sure if it would be enough to cost him the election.

But what if it is? Is that a risk you want him to take with a bad policy?
