I bet he has no problem moving to the left though.
And if Congress remains relatively unchanged in it’s composition, he will have a ready made excuse to “compromise” his position, and our values along with them.
I voted twice for President Bush who I thought would implement a conservative agenda. However, other than on taxes, judicial appointments and the war on terror (and ever there he could have been more of a hawk), his administration has been a disappointment to me as a conservative.
Seems like whether we're talking about Supreme Court nominees or presidential candidates...ya' rolls the dice, and ya' takes your chances.
