You may have a point here, but I have to call you on your dishonesty. Jeffords was a Senator from Vermont while Dubya was still governor of Texas. He is in no way responsible for this. Top Republicans may be, but Dubya is not.

Actually I wasn't being dishonest. I never said that Bush supported Jeffords directly. As you point out he wasn't President at the time of Jeffords' last campaign. I said that if Bush II was President during Jeffords' last campaign (which his father was) do you have any doubt that he would have supported this RINO against a conservative challenger? If you do have any doubt, check out his recent interference in the Iowa, California and Tennesee statewide primaries.

If you weren't dishonest, then you certainly was misleading.

You said, and I quote, "without the support of Bush and other top Republicans..." Which Bush? Today it implies Dubya, not G.H.W. Bush.
