There are a lot of good speeches on record, but few actually have the outcome alluded to.
Of course McCain is going to say what he knows we want to hear. But there is still the issue of that glaring 24 year record that substantially contradicts conservative values.
Bush sold me with some good speeches and did he deliver the goods??? For the most part, NO!
One good speech is not going to roll me over.
Oh. So, he didn't cut taxes, stop federal funding of fetal stem cell research and abortion and begin raising the education levels of our children to some kind of decent standard? If he didn't get the fence built (two have been passed) or succeed with tort reform, get the death tax repealed or his tax cuts made permanent, it was because the purists turned on him with a viciousness and vengeance worthy of a Democrat. You offered vitriol rather than the support he needed to get all of his agenda passed. NO president can succeed without support.
Even now, those purists just HAVE to get more licks in. Here we are probably stuck with McCain, famous for stabbing President Bush in the back at every opportunity...and you're blaming Bush. Unbelievable.
