Hmmmm, let me see....
A republican "security" president who refuses to secure the southern border.
A republican president who cuts taxes but also spends like a drunken sailor.
A republican president who does nothing to abate offshore outsourcing, even though people in my neck of the woods are jobless. (Whether you think it's the president's job or not, the jobless have votes).
A republican majority in congress that cowers to a democratic minority.
Yeah, the libs will gain some ground.
It's a shame.
Cockiness, pride, and haughtiness goeth before a fall. Even for the GOP. Everyday that GWB allows to go by without securing the border, reigning in gub'ment spending, and enticing domestic job creation, hurts the conservative cause. The security of the homeland issue will not be solely sufficient to ensure that his GOP successor will take the presidential office next time. I pray we (GOP, conservatives,etc.) have learned this lesson, but I'm not seeing much evidence of it so far. If we lose in 2008, we have no one to blame but ourselves. It won't be because the DEM's beat us head to head.
Sadly, all those things you mentioned will give a "President Hilary".
The voters aren't being bought off by a smoke screen any more. Fortunately, the Demos have no one in their talent pool, but As the Beast moves rightward (all false of course)it will happen.
I caught a small segment of Edwards..the (2 nations)
VP candidate..his message is the same as always...appeal
to the bleeding hearts...gad..I can't fathom anyone
in their right mind voting for these nitwits...
and Donna (I'm Black) Brazille, is still out there
with the same old,,bash Bush and anyone else that don't cater to us on the ..government trough.. they feel they
are entitled to be in power...Go see Uncle Ted and
John (I'm a Veteran) Kerry..no wonder Hillary appeals
to them..who else do they have? Jake
