the liberals are too stupid to know who they are. these suburban soccer moms voting for Kerry probably wouldn't describe themselves as liberals, but they are, they just don't know it.
I don't know about "soccer moms".
But I DO know that MOST Americans:
oppose affirmative action
support the right to keep and use firearms in self-defense
oppose illegal immigration
oppose bi-lingualism
support marriage protection laws
oppose gay marriage
oppose the radical homosexual agenda
support protecting the American Flag
oppose erasing religion and God from the sphere of public life
support the death penalty
oppose activist courts and activist judges
support the use of school vouchers
oppose late term abortions
support a strong defense
support stiff sentencing for violent offenders
oppose confiscatory taxes
support tort reform.
And these are ALL core conservative beliefs - NOT liberal ones.
Pataki, Giuliani, Schwarzengger, et al. differ with many if not MOST of the above positions.
