Reagan was no establishment Republican. ....thank God.
Ok, who stole it you or Laz?
Right on the money.
If Bush didn't fight the War on Terror, I would find him indifferentiable from a big spending liberal democrat.
Thank God is right!!
Sorry to deflate your ego, but the repetition of an ill-conceived, unconvincing argument does not make it any more valid.
I remember when I learned how to work CTRL+C too! :)
Ok, you seem to have the facts.
however, considering the house and senate were heavily democratic, 9 out out of 39 still does not seem to bad.
:7)
Ronald Regan.
My guess would be that invalidity begins with a criticism that contains no logical supporting facts or data that refute my observations.
However, you are correct that I have posted what I wrote on just about every SCOTUS thread. And, I will continue to do so not from an egotistical position, but because this subject requires careful analysis and conclusions from same. I would be interested in reading your "careful analysis" and the conclusions you've drawn from them. I also have a couple of other prepared articles ready for posting on this topic. I leave the egotistical, emotional rants to others.
You can start by perusing the 200+ comments I've made regarding the Miers nomination-in over forty similar threads-over the course of the past week.
My guess would be that GWB specifically and the RNC generally probably isn't all that concerned about the possibility of loosing your personal support. I would also suspect that most of the professional libs/DNC don't care either.
My company and I are in the business of both identifying trends and predicting them. We've had far more successes than failures. After this is all played out, we'll all see how it comes down. My guess would be that the blood-lusting bomb throwers will loose in the long term.
It's not just his personal support that's at stake. This has caused more dissension among Republicans than probably anything else since Reconstruction.
As for my predictions, all I can say is that conservative third parties will very likely do better in '08 than in '04. (not that that's a huge hurdle to get over)
Good, then I hope they enjoy being being l00sers, because they'll have plenty of time to experience the feeling in upcoming elections.
When President Bush & Co. are staring down the shallow end of minority party status don't say that we didn't warn you.
That could very well be a short term effect. However, just as the libs know that currently, their only hope at political power lies with the Democrats, so to the conservatives know that the road to power lies with Republican Party. Whatever abandonment that may occur in the '06 midterms or later will quite likely be a footnote in the overall election consequences. It may very well be however, that this SCOTUS process will galvanize voters into selecting even more conservative senators/representatives than what is there now. But I doubt if the defection rate, itself, will have any meaningful effect.
Don't worry about it...I think this kitty perfers something else.
