I guess we can thank God for this:
The four leading Republican presidential candidates have aligned themselves with President Bush’s veto on Wednesday of an expanded health insurance program for children, once again testing the political risk of appearing in lock step with a president who has low approval ratings and some critics of the veto within their party.
I think Guiliani has the potential to rescue the GOP from their impending oblivion, but it is never going to happen if he doesn’t aggressively separate himself from the president on domestic issues. The idea that the GOP can restore their reputation for fiscal conservatism by denying children health care is foolish. They are making this too easy.
