Door to Door
So I was going around door to door today to my neighbors to collect signatures to get my Congressman Jim Gerlach on the ballot. I went around with one of my solidly R neighbors, who happens to be a recovering Liberal.
On the way out of my house he was saying, "What is Bush doing?"
Shrugging my shoulders, I said, "I have no idea..."
I had the neighbors pretty much pegged D or R. We've never been overly political in the neighborhood, except for a few comments over the years, so I knocked on the definate R doors. In BS'ing with the Republican neighborsI heard more than once, "yeah, I'm a Republican... but I've been disappointed lately."
How do you say anything else but, "Yeah, me too?"

I recently commented on Samizdata:
"I think ALL conservatives are upset with President Bush.
"When I look at the choices, however, it seems clear that GOP control is the least worst option. I know Samizdats tend to be purists, but a dirty pragmatism seems a better friend to liberty than would a 'Speaker Pelosi.'"
On the lighter side, we are asking Iraqis to accept compromise from feuding tribes. I suppose we have to accept compromise from RINOs and Democrats.
