In 2008, there is going to be consensus among Democrats and Greens that the war in Iraq was wrong, abortion should be legal, rich people should pay more taxes, and elections should be fair and honest. That’s why it’s kind of funny that Republicans can’t seem to figure out where they stand on any of that. I am sure that they will roll out some Shrub-clones, but there’s going to be a lot of debate about who among them is the anti-Shrub. Of course, McCain comes to mind, but he’s not faring too well in some parts of this state. News about our opponents comes to us from KMEG of Sioux City (http://www.kmeg14.com/news/local/2627706.html) which reports that McCain is trying to court die-hard conservatives. It’s not going to well for J-Mac out there, largely because the GOP conservatives look at him and see a traitor.
