The writer is making the argument that bush policies that conservatives don't like should be tolerated because they help build a long running republican ruling majority. and with a ruling majority the pubbies could then do more stuff conservatives like.

All I was saying was that according to the terms of the writers own arguement Bush is enacting policies which may help his administration but in the long term--they will do in the republicans.
