The most telling moment I've heard in the last two years was me in the USA chatting to a lifelong republican who was telling me that for the first time he was not going to vote in this election. He had initially been a supporter of McCain, but ever since he got the thumbs up from Bush, his politics have gotten closer and closer to Dubya's. And my mate couldn't justify American continuuing down the same path economically as it has the last few years - and this was well before the current crisis began.

On the other hand, my mum was telling me a few weeks back how nutso she thought Palin was because she was pro-life but against the death penalty, for the Iraq war and etc, etc, etc. I had to point out to her that none of that makes Palin nutso, it just makes her a republican.
