"Yes, I am mystified where this notion that conservatives abandoned Bush in 2000 came from. It strikes me as a manufactured excuse to embrace liberalism by falsely accusing conservatives that they did not turn out for him on election day. "

Yeah, I'd like to see some kind of validation of those charges too, preferably by a conservative source. There are FReepers buying wholesale the notion that a small but effective percentage of "white Evangelical Christians" voted for Gore because they thought Bush too liberal. On its face, the very idea is loony toons Michael Rivero incredible. The incriminating data is from a liberal source that went out of its way with leading questions to marginalize the white Christian conservative voting block. And now, rather than offer an olive branch, as is being done for every fringe liberal voting block - the Bush republicans are using this questionable poll data to further marginalize white Christian conservatives and drive a permanant wedge into the party.

There's something rotten in Denmark Washington.

Moreover, drawing comparative inference based on a 4% difference when at least 5% of the respondents appear to be either irrational, lying, or mistaken has a very, very low confidence level.
