Because we will get into more wars regardless of who wins. We would be in Iraq today if Gore had won. But we would also have higher taxes and even more Big government than under Bush. If a Democrat wins in 2004 we are not going to pull out of Iraq and it won't stop the next war. It will just be a war that the liberal press likes and doesn't criticize like Kosovo. It is a "lessor" of two evils. A third party vote is totally wasted until one of the two major parties is totally discredited by a major cataclysm.

And also of the party, if they keep on making excuses for him. I think that the Republicans would be best served in leading the investigation, and making sure it was honest. If it comes out that it was an intentional lie, so be it. They should dump him to save themselves.
Of course, they could do what Tony Blair is doing-blaming underlings for feeding him false information. Who knows, maybe the public will believe that.
