Yes, immigration enforcement and border security is Bush's biggest failure. And if we get hit by terrorists who've snuck in through Mexico, it will torpedo his Presidency in it's entirety.

The Conservative base is a lot stronger then the Hillary base so I am not worried.
I truly believe that die hard democrats will hold their nose and vote for Hillary and a larger then usual percent will not even vote as opposed to voting for her. The turnout by democrats shall be low if she is the candidate.

Maybe the intra-party divisions between fiscal vs. Big Government conservatives...... There's no such thing as Big Gov't conservatives, only Big Gov't Republicans.

The "New World Order" are the corporate and banking elitists. So they have a slight upper hand over the Stalinists. The unwashed masses of individuals don't rally care. Remember the Bush vs. Gore elections. one half the eligible voters did not show up to the polls. Why should they. No matter who they vote for, they get more illegal immigrant cheap labor to compete against. The Queers scared the otherwise indifferent to vote in 2004. Somehow I think 2006 is going to have a turnout made up only of party activists. It's going to be a real low turnout.

IMHO..... better that his base has not suffered another 911 than any other issue.

If we get hit, he should be removed. No excuse for an unsecured border and 15M ILLEGAL immigrants wandering around the US in a time of war, 4+ years after 9/11.

There will be more clamor about how the country will collapse without a guest worker program to do the cleanup that Americans refuse to due after the terrorist attack (Katrina sound familiar?). We'll all tune in to see American Idol when the terrorist soundbite fades out. And in November we'll all re-elect Republicans despite all this grumbling.
Just like always.

I find it interesting that on a day when the President won a big victory for our team, there are so many threads about him selling out his base being posted.
Just a note for the record.

"IMHO..... better that his base has not suffered another 911 than any other issue" That happens to be at the top of my list also
To: robowombat
We just appointed a majority of conservative judges to the SCOTUS. As a self described member of the conservative base, I am pretty happy.

*PING!* Phyllis Schafly ahs it 100% RIGHT!
That evening, the Bush administration sent in its big guns, Vice President Dick Cheney and Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., to insist that RNC members support the guest worker plan or else they would be labeled disloyal and disrespectful of President Bush. Republican Party chairman Ken Mehlman made the rounds to regional caucuses to demand approval of Bush's guest worker plan and defeat of the Pullen resolution.

Hopefully the one area where W will improve over the Gipper is in his Supreme Court picks.

To: scratcher
; ). I'm glad I'm not the only one.
There are always people who can't enjoy the progress that is made. There are others who want to see it disrupted.
And yes, it's going to take a while to remove the big smile from my face. I plan on it getting bigger this evening.
