Less "compassion." More conservatism please. Start with ditching the AWB.

Bush needs to fire up his conservative base. The moderates will also get fired up when he starts campaigning and he stresses how important the war on terrorism really is.

I don't think this administration is really fully in tune with how desperate the American people are for real leadership, Reagan-type leadership, and NOT JUST in the War on Terrorism. Bush is doing an outstanding job on that front, but people aren't stupid and they can sense that his leadership and passion are lacking in many other key areas.
