Idealists will decide election

We'll find out tonight how much power the "principled" conservatives have to sway elections. These are the people who are so fed up with President Bush that they have decided to stay home or vote for another candidate deemed more conservative. Either choice will have negative effects. Many couldn't care less, though. If a candidate doesn't support immediate deportation of all illegal aliens, his conservative credentials are questioned. Never mind the logistical nightmare this would create.

If the Democrats retake Congress today, the blame will rest on the shoulders of these naive idealists. It certainly could not be the Democratic juggernaut folks are suggesting exists. The party has no constructive agenda. So, if the Dems win, they can thank the anti-compromise conservatives who somehow think they're doing the country a service by refusing to vote for anyone but those with rock-solid conservative credentials.
