Except he didn't have any.
My writeup on Bush here in the Summer of 1999 no longer exists. I'll try to reproduce it from memory.
He came to our small town in July of 1999 to campaign in the GOP primary. He spent the night on an island in Lake Winnipesaukee with (very rich) friends, and arrived at the town docks in a caravan of classic wooden boats accompanied by the country club elite, in straw boaters, blue blazers and Docksiders.
He made his way to the bandstand and started to speak.
After a few perfunctory remarks about "conservative principles", he got into the meat. First: The real American heroes are single moms. They have the toughest job, having to work and raise a family. When he is President, he will take care of them and make sure the men who abandon them will be found and will pay. Second: Education. When he is President, the Federal government will turn its might to fixing it. Every child in America deserves the same education. Third: Seniors. When he is President, they will have better Medicare and more free stuff (drugs). Fourth: Salute our armed forces, they are the tip of the spear.
End.
I got to shake his hand. I said to him, "Governor - of course you know women file 80% of the divorces". He had dead eyes.
That night, I wrote this up and said, in conclusion, "He is our Clinton", meaning that he could talk a dog off a meat truck but didn't mean a word he said about conservatism.
Fortunately, he only got 29% of the vote up here.
Was he a good man? Yes, I believe he was. Did he have conservative principles to stick to? Not a one.
