Funny thing is, some of us remember when Israel was NOT a "right-wing" or even a Republican issue.

Speaking as a grassroots volunteer Bush campaign coordinator who is pro-gun, pro-life, and Roman Catholic, and as one of the FReepers who spent hours-at-a-time days demonstrating for Bush here in the D.C. area during the election aftermath, I can clearly say that the President IS "vulnerable on the right." And, most of this underlying "underneath the radar screen" dissatisfaction with Bush involves pro-life and pro-gun rights activists most critical to presidential election outcomes.

The right wingers need to ask themselves. Do we want the Nader peoples role (spoilers) in the next election?

Focus on local elections.

[Tacis]

Oh geez, let's not start this alreay! Yes, the Republicans LOVE you right wingers. Yes, we need your support, enthusiasm and efforts. But, no, you are not going to get our absolute promise on your top 50 make-or-break items. Threaten and whine all you want. Call us RINOs or whatever. L>Let's not go through that BS again.

Bush is who he is. The party will take positions on issues that it thinks advance the overall interests of the country and the party. Just remember, your right wing nut issues are better served by the Republicans than they ever would be by the lefties. So negotiate all you want, all you can but when you have all you can get, stop. Let's not have another year of "we will burn the house down around all our heads" when you don't get all you want of your conservative issues.

George W. Bush is a sell-out.

[FourtySeven]

Is Bush vulnerable on the right?

YES

[dr_who]

YES!

[janetgreen]

YES. Along with many other conservatives, I gave up on him when he didn't close the borders after September 11 and didn't cancel visas. Instead he wants to grant amnesty to third worlders. What is he thinking?

[paul51]

Is Bush vulnerable on the right?

Possibly, but will it make any difference in an election against Gore? Naa

[dalebert]

The Dems are already running against Bush and trying to tear down his credibility(its going to be a long haul to 2004)and the Right complaining does not bode well for the war on terror.One think I am sure of is that the press will keep feeding the fire. Most of the people I talk to are sick of it.They are concerned with their jobs, their families and think Bush is doing a pretty good job.
