I don't know Mickey - a LOT of the Pugs with whom I've spoken aren't
or haven't been all that thrilled with what Bush has (or hasn't) done
lately; what with the southern border, spending, not to mention the
Iraq mess - seems to me that many are just getting tired of holding
their noses. I know I am - and unlike many Dems who will support
anyone as long as they stand a chance to Win, I really don't think the
cons are willing to hold their nose for another term, especially a
candidate who's idea of working "with" the Dems is simply agreeing
with them.
