Support for Bush among Republicans is still extraordinarily high. There are a few "single-issue" types who will stay home from the polls if their candidate fails that litmus test, and there are as many on the left as there are on the right. But I think they are a minority in both parties, and I wouldn't call them "true" representatives of either side.
I have a few issues with Bush myself. I didn't like his education bill, particularly in that he abandoned education vouchers. I didn't like the steel tariffs. I didn't like what he did with the Farm Bill. I don't like the prescription benefit idea as it stands. And I don't like his lack of brakes on Federal spending.
None of these things will keep me from voting him in over whatever the Democrats come up with next year.
