I believe they would LOVE to turn this country back over to the Democrats, thus destroying this country, thinking that then their MARGINAL candidate would ride to the rescue. BAH.

It's so easy to pontificate when you're never been in a position to have to do anything at all.

You sound as though there are only two choices : a republican liberal politician or a democrat liberal politician. We're trying to tell you that you don't advance conservatism by running liberals for office.

Now, your own state intends to inflict Elizabeth Dole on the Senate. She's a big government liberal. You can't even argue that she isn't, because she has already proven it herself. When you give a conserative a choice between two liberals, he's likely to choose neither. Why is that so hard for you to see?

I don't think that you and your pals here care what we're trying to tell you, so what I've been doing for the past few years is working to convince all these nasty, boring Southern conservative whiners and unappeasables to just let you Country Clubbers (and Wannabes) have the GOP all to yourselves. Y'all want our votes but not our values or our input. You can't have just the vote. Sorry, that isn't up for grabs.

Trouble is, you won't have a party and will have to merge with the democrats. That's what your party leaders have been doing anyway. Good luck. Have fun.

Politics is the "art of the possible". I believe that Bush is making the best of the hand dealt him by scum like Jeffords.

I heard some nitwit on Rush last week saying how Bush should stop worrying about being re-elected and just push through the total conservative "pure" agenda. The problem is that if that you are successful and the election goes against you, the DemocRATS will certainly overturn the agenda and replace your "pure" conservatism with "pure" liberalism.
