By golly, I think we have a winner! You know, I don't see how, at this point in time, any even semi-balanced thread could avoid leaning against Bush. I've been watching the enthusiasm for him wane over time in most quarters. I couldn't bring myself to vote for either him or Gore but I was willing to give the winner a chance. By the time Bush had imposed the steel tariffs, I was off the fence and it just kept getting worse from there. It took a while before I had much company, though. Right now he still has the allegiance of the social conservatives and the neocons, to list two ingredients from Nadine's stew, plus those who are so partisan they would go to the mat for any Republican, regardless, but the rest of the right and the Republicans are at best lukewarm. I appreciate your aversion to the mindless Bush-haters, but it's not just the Bush-haters who lean away. Huge chunks of the middle and right are disenchanted, too. There are few places where you'd find a lot of cheering for Bush. So IMO you shouldn't be surprised to not find it here.
