Conservativeness
You ask, you recieve. Bush is in general a conservative. And he is certainly vastly more conservative than android-American Gore, or any of his likely opponents in the next election. I was upset by his trade policies, when he went protectionist. I am upset with the prescription drug thingie. (Thingie!) I am bothered that he has not increased the size of the military. The tax cuts are insufficient. The airline safety agency is a nauseating joke, and the Homeland Security agency... sheesh. Arguably, this is because I am more conservative than he is.
While I have been occasionally frustrated, especially on matters economic; overall, I am happy with his performance in the war on terror. This is the overriding issue in this time, and I support him and the administration. The mudville nine have so far offered nothing that looks like a real foriegn policy.
I also support the administration because Rumsfeld is fucking awesome.
I also support the administration because it irritates people like Hesiod.

Take another look at Howard
Take another look at Howard Dean. On balance, he is a centrist, not a liberal. On certain issues, he's more conservative than Bush.
Look at him! Look at him!
So, are you claiming that
So, are you claiming that Dean is McCain in liberal drag?
Oh for god's sake.
Oh for god's sake.
Not exactly. While it's true that Dean and McCain are tapping similar wellsprings in the American voting populace, albeit from different directions, Dean's proposed policies, while not all perfect, are sound, reasonably practical, and sensible. I don't remember John McCain making a single policy point that made me sit up and go "yeah!"
