That comes from a grand master of pandering.
...and Pat Buchanan is saying Bush did this to pander to his base.
Bush has the base in his pocket. He keeps his base just by being who he is. Buchanan, having never had a base, does'nt know what he's talking about. Chris Matthews said the same crap about his "base", and Press pipes in with the Nixon Southern Strategy crap. Grrrooowwwwllllllll!
