So just exactly how large is this huge monolithic Republican base of voters do you think?

[NNN0LHI]

Lets see Bill Clinton left office with about a 70% approval rating. No Republicans there.

Bush's approval ratings have been hovering around 30% for the past year or so. I bet thats the Republicans.

Who is afraid of this big bad wolf that people keep saying are going to vote against our candidates next year?

Not me.

2. Just wait till those trillions of life loving christians

decide to come out and vote against the evil democratic presidential candidate. This is a christian country founded on the bible and the "values" as listed in leviticus. I would hazard a guess that based on data compiled by the heritage foundation and other legitimate conservative think tanks in this country that more then 157% of the registered voters in this country are by gawd flag waving patriotic republicans.

If a lurker slips up my "statistics" will end up in a letter to the editor in the bible belt.

3. I've said for years they have solid rock supporters at 27-37% - maybe,

just maybe, it might go below 22%-32%. It appears they are not going to get a boost from invading and plundering Iran.

4. it's interesting that no matter how...

many books and articles are written about all the difficulties people have voting..between machine malfunctions or 'glitches', purging of voter rolls, problems with registration, switching of polling places...republicans challenging voters at the polling places etc.,etc.,people still insist that Bush won both elections. I'm afraid of the big bad wolf, that is our voting system.
