I agree with you. Bush is not perfect, but there is no doubt that he was the best candidate. I think that many Christians did not vote in 2000 because of "uncertainty". Maybe they could see that George W. Bush sounded better, but they were not sure they could fully trust. As you know, often politicians promise many things but don't deliver. Bush seemed the best candidate, but was he actually the best?
Many people had doubts that prevented them to cast their votes.
However, since now for a while, Bush has been leading this country in the right direction, Christian people should have more confidence in Bush.
We also need to remember that among the Republican voters and leaders not everyone is as conservative as everyone else. Some are more conservative, some are less. Because of this, I understand that George W. Bush has tried (with some difficulties) to satisfy Republican voters and leaders of various shades and by doing that he lost some good voters in the process.
I believe that next time people vote for Bush, more Christians will vote for him.

I disagree. The prosecution of the war effort has been a positive, but proposing a budget larger than anything Clinton ever dreamed up and expanding the size and scope of the federal government is not the direction I want to see the country led.

That's insane! As opposed to the other choice, Algore???

Those people sitting out the election for the reasons you sited above was a direct endorsement of Algore. Absolutely stupid reasons. It's one thing to feel that way, but actions speak louder than words.

Those people can thank US, who voted for Bush, who had no doubt he was the right candidate for being in the White House today.
