Reply #10: On not alienating moderate Republicans:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

I think you're onto something here. Last year, while surfing the net, I discovered the website RepublicansagainstBush. It was full of thoughtful writings about how unhappy these moderates were with Bush. I was astonished. I'd had NO IDEA that there were so many moderates. It heartened me. I believe these moderates continue to work against the current administration, and they will work in 2008 to nominate a moderate candidate. They bear watching! Thank you for your very well-taken points.
