Liz Dole, please STFU...

I am suddenly reminded why I disliked Republicans so much when I was younger. This woman is so santimonious and condescending -- lecturing on abortion and gay marriage -- that she's no doubt reversing much of the momentum Bush has been building for the last few months. I'm sure she'll be the lead on tomorrow's news.

UPDATE: Well, what do I know? For all I've heard on the news, it's like she wasn't there. If she made that speech in Canada, we'd never hear the end of it.

Arnold and Laura Bush were a perfect antidote to her narrow views. While Dole preached that the most important thing for Republicans was to shove their morals down other people throats, Arnold made it clear he considered the Republicans to be the party of freedom and opportunity. It's lucky for W that he's a lot more memorable a figure.
