there is no such thing as somebody "pretending" to be this or that for election purposes- if they change their position when they get in, they are out next term which is only 2 yrs. What is happening, which you fail to see, is that Bush and Rove are SO EXTREME FAR RIGHT that even moderates can't stomach them anymore and that is why Pelosi is speaker. Pelosi herself is liberal but the new congresspeople elected in both the house and senate were for the most part moderates such as Webb from Virginia. Bill Clinton always had a moderate agenda and that is the correct way to govern this nation. Extremes either way just piss everybody off. This war and bush have brought down a ton of really great republicans such as McCain who up until he embraced Bush's war stategy I felt had a good chance to be president. Now, because he is a republican aligned with Bush, he has NO CHANCE. The only republicans who have prospered recently are those who have moved to the center and distanced themselves from Bush like Chuck Hagel or Schwartzegger. BTW I think Hillary will win the white house on nostalgia for Clinton style USA, but in the unlikely event we get a republican in the WH, Romney or Guilliani are fine with me. Just not Bush or anything neocon or Bush-like.
