These lost souls have a problem with the idea of partial birth abortions. Or maybe it's the fact that they're sick of being told to feel guilty about keeping their hard-earned pay when there's more pork to be bought in Washington. Maybe they're just sick of being lied to. Point is they are about as ticked off as they were in 1994, the year Republicans took over Congress. So Republicans are united and ready to strike a blow for freedom.
Democrats suffer significant fragmentation at the core of their base vote.
Independents get to look at this from the catbird's seat. This amazing 15 percent has held out until the end. They will break to Bush. George Bush will give them more control over their children's education. He has an envious record of achievement in Texas, will send the money back to local school districts, and won't cow-tow those who would fail our kids.
