First, Salier does oppose Social Security. Second, that trick would have been used by Harkin 10-fold. Salier would have been slaughtered. Iowa is not as conservative as Salier is. He's a great guy, but should move to some place that has actually supported the GOP candidate for president more recently than 1984 (unlike Iowa).

Yeah, I saw the Harkin/Ganske poll today. It's the best of the three polls I've seen, and the incumbent is under the magic 55%. But he's still got a comfortable lead right now. I just really wish the White House would have stayed out of the primary race. I'm not sure what effects that will have on Ganske's chances.

Salier does not want to yank SS away from anyone.

Besides that, you're assuming, it's hopeless to change the hearts and minds of people.

I reject that idea and I think Bill has proven it.

He had Democrats who heard him, giving him contributions.

If expecting this country to abide by the constitution and expecting those who take oaths to abide by those oaths, is too conservative, God help this country.
