    Default Would you vote for Bush today?

    In theory, if Bush were running for President in 2008, would you vote for him? Why or why not?

    No--his mere presence in the White House would guarantee division for 4 more years and he has failed to secure our borders.

    I would not. I appreciate what he's done, but 8 years of ANYBODY is enough. Time to move on.

If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I think Bush sold the Right a false bill of goods. Even on the most conservative of issues, cutting taxes, he's partially screwed up, by not getting them permanently extended with a GOP Congress. I'm not saying he's a total failure, but he's no Ronald Reagan.

    No. About all he has done is spend, spend, spend and not effectively addressed major problems in the country. IMO he has been just plain incompetent overall!

    W is running against whom?

    Against any of the current Dem candidates? Yes, certainly.

    Against most of the current Republican candidates? No, except possibly against McCain.

    Bush did excellently on judicial appointments, and good on Defense, especially the war declared by terrorists against us. He did pretty well on taxes, considering the opposition he got. He did poorly on government spending and entitlements, and abysmally on securing the border.

    He's an odd mixed bag of conservative and liberal - sort of like being "pregnant" and "not pregnant" at the same time. Most current Repub candidates would be better than him, but he is miles above any current Dem candidate. As well as being miles above any of his former Dem opponents.

    let me see if i get this straight:

    You honestly believe that President Bush and Senator McCain are the only people who would stand up to Iran if they keep messing with us?

    The acorn doesn't usually fall far from the tree. I didn't care for his fathers policies so I couldn't see his being any different. I was totally correct!
    A chance for a new beginning, like a dawn of reconciliation.

    How were they similar? Which Policies of Sr. bothered you? Why?

    I think, I suspect what causes you to not-like Jr, isn't His Father. It's he fact he 'won' and he's NOT a democrat.

    For his court appointments, integrity and toughness- YES!

    For his immigration policies - NO!

    It really depends upon his opponent.
