Will I agree with you about Gore-he was tainted by Clinton but also proved unable to build on Clinton successes.

Bush's character (or peoples impressions of it) is a sticky issue. What did you think of his 2000 attacks on John McCain? That was a pretty despicable display of politics at their worst. He claims to have no direct tie with the Swift Boat Vets, yet he did nothing to stop them and they did Kerry a good deal of harm. Bush looks to me to be a lot like every other politico - get elected whatever the cost. With a man like Carl Rove in charge there's no limits.

Finally Bush and the Christian right do scare me. I grew up in a fundamental Christian home where the world is black and white. The older I get the less I agree with that. Regardless of popular belief Billy Graham and God didn't annoint Bush. He was elected with the help of the electoral college process.
