GOP Needs to Get Back to Basics
Spending, Economic Stewardship, Defense...
Despite the fact that the GOP is focused on killing the filibuster, steriods, and other aspects of the culture of life, it still seems that most Americans, including Elephant, would like to see the GOP turn their efforts to..you know..things the government is supposed to care about rather than all this divisive stuff. Traditionally, the GOP could wallop Dems on issues related to the economy, but with the horrible track record of the last five years, some (Mr. Santorum?) may be a bit nervous heading into 2006. Of course as that time approaches, the GOP can always roll out the gay-marriage boogey man and set up some orange alerts to get the vote out.
