69. What about...
those that might be a little less than enthusiastic about "abortion" but are even less enthusiastic about the war in Iraq? What about those that profess religious belief and belong to a church but can see the value in recognizing equal rights for all Americans? It strikes me as rather unproductive to push people over to the right simply because they do not fit a certain "orthodoxy" of the left, especially when the left ought to not have an orthodoxy to begin with!

The GOP won't be defeated by pushing away people with whom we might otherwise agree simply because we may disagree with them on this or that issue. I'd like to think our ideals are just a tad bigger than that...
