p>As one of those disgruntled Republicans, this spring after 40
GOP years -- I changed my registration from Republican to
independent. The Bush administration has tried to out-promise the
Democrats and is guilty of both poor administration and poor policy
in immigration. I can forgive him Iraq, but not so many other
mis-steps. These policy changes suggested by Hogberg won't get me
to vote for Bush. I won't vote for Kerry, but can Kerry really be
that much worse than George W. Bush? I am not convinced. I suspect
that if enough of us old Republicans refuse to endorse Bush on
election day 2004, we will either have clout again in the
Republican Party or all is lost anyway. Faced with a bad electoral
choice in his retirement, Thomas Jefferson wrote a friend, "I
intend to be sick that day."

David Hogberg set a good test for Bush but left unsaid the clear
corollary: If Bush does not do at least this much, Conservatives
must vote for someone else or refuse to give their consent
altogether.

Amazing. If the poll is using flawed and suspect date, why the
definitive headline of "Bush In Trouble?" We all know, of course,
it's for those too stupid or lazy (liberals, naturally) to go
beyond a headline. The never-ending desire of you writers (and
that's all you are...writers!) to create the news vs. simply report
it is numbing. Your deception is a load despite deception being
your primary job duty.
