Guess this a forum where folks can voice their opinions about Bush's candidacy, so here are mine.

GWB is likely to get the nomination and could win. While I'm not a strong opponent of his candidacy, I have a few qualms.

Background issue #1: After all the hullaboo about Clinton's moral problems and the skeletons in his closet, should we really choose as a followup an alcoholic and a possible past cocaine user? (Note I said possible. I think he has not denied the rumors so far(?).) Also I hope there are no Paula Jones/Dolly Browning type characters out there with stories about what may or may not have happened during some past partying.

Background issue #2: I wish that a lot of his personal funds hadn't come from "corporate welfare" in the form a taxpayer funded stadium.

Issue #3: Is he the best qualified candidate? Probably not.
