Unless the GOP front runners further distance themselves from GWB, the Democratic nominee will have an easy time at the polls. Unless the debate can be shifted from a US vs GWB to a "X" vs "Y" (no gender pun intended). The GOP is going to get their ears boxed and Hillary will get a second free ride. One from the press which the original poster has identified and one from the anti-GWB sentiment.

This is no time to defend what has been an abysmal political dismantling of the Reagan legacy.

If I was advising Fred T. I would have him distance himself as the "true conservative" and hammer away at;

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY

IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT AND ENHANCEMENTS

A MIDDLE EAST STRATEGY THAT FOCUSES ON

1) ENERGY ALTERNATIVES AND A RACE FOR TRUE INDEPENDENCE

2) A MORE DEFINED WAR ON TERROR (FOCUS ON BIN LADEN)

3) PREPARATION FOR A SHIFT TO PAKISTAN AS AN AREA OF FOCUS. IF BHUTTO AND MUSHARAF DONT PULL OFF THEIR AGENDA...WE'RE IN BIG TROUBLE.

RESTORING TRUE FREE ENTERPRISE AND STOP THE ASSAULT ON THE MIDDLE CLASS

Is anyone advising Fred T, or if so is he paying attention? If this article is accurate, he needs your help quickly :) -

OK, I am going to have to "show my ignorance for everyone to see". But, who is Fred T.?

Fred T is Fred Thompson.

Is it just me or does that silhouette on the last slide make him look like Richard Nixon?

Hillary can not win or we are in big trouble. She proved as first lady that she can not follow through with her ideas and OH wait wishy washy flip flopping forked tongue. That the Clinton's marital history Stinks. And I don't want to see what Political figure dies on their watch this time and how it is covered up, buried and hidden.

There I said it and I'm glad... lol

I hate to break this to you. But, we are ALREADY in big trouble! LOL
