And y'all sat out one election too many. You ain't the base anymore. Bush isn't going to stick your neck out for him after y'all voted in smaller numbers in 2000 than you did in 1996.

B/S. Bush never would have won in 2000 without strong conservative support. Just look at how poorly Pat Buchannan did in that election. What was his tally? <1%? It was precisely because of motivated conservatives that Bush prevailed.

You're living in a dream world Poobah, but like I said, it won't be the first time the Liberal Wing of the republican party discovers what happens when they push candidates that have more in common with the democratic party than they do with conservatism.
