re: #301 Dan G.

Wrong. As one of those independents that was not the basis of my decision, nor many others I’ve spoken with. It had more to do with fiscal responsibility (or the promise of it) and an executive with a backbone (militarily).

Ummm…we were running in the *black* in 2000. Fiscal responsibility had *nothing* to do with that election. And, as GW himself said in the campaign, “I’m running against peace a prosperity, here.”

Please try again. Positioning himself as “a different kind of Conservative” made *all* of the difference.
