<<George W. Bush and the GOP establishment ought to
be as proud of their South Carolina victory as the
Russian generals are of conquering Grozny.

In order to save Bush's candidacy, they had to destroy
his integrity and, just maybe, the Republican Party's
chances in November.

By running a campaign of spectacular cynicism and
mendacity, Bush obliterated his image as a
"compassionate conservative" and "a uniter, not a
divider," and destroyed his claim to be the Republican
best able to end the Clinton-Gore era. >>

<<Bush visited racist, anti-Catholic Bob Jones
University. He has weakly tried to distance himself
from the school's racial views -- but has yet to utter a
single word against the fundies' repugnant view of
Catholicism. >>

<<Gary Bauer, a longtime leader of the Christian
conservative movement, took a look at the way the
religious right was behaving in South Carolina and
endorsed McCain.

"For Pat Robertson and Ralph Reed to put the
movement at the service of the Bush attack machine
just disgusted Gary," said a close Bauer friend. "I really
think he wanted to save the honor of religious
conservatism."

I spoke to Bauer on Friday. He decried as "dishonest"
the attempt to define the pro-life McCain as a liberal on
issues important to Christian conservatives. >>
