It's certainly the case it has moved right since 92 when Bush 41 lost.

No it isn't. Bush 43 instituted a new entitlement program, vastly increased federal spending on education, and in other "social" areas, and now you have the Paulson plan.

Maybe he moved to the right in terms of lip service, but he hasn't consistently done even that.

The Republicans in congress did move more to the right, but that didn't really stick very well.
