meets with people they do not agree with. In a typical Bush way, they seem to think you should only speak to friends.

I saw the GOP debate yesterday (I survived through the nearly three hours of debate, not sure how I did), but it is frightening that somebody as irresponsible as Gingrich may well be nominee (at least Sara Palin was only VP nominee). Interestingly, and while I disagree with him on most things, it was surprising through this debate and the foreign policy one a few weeks ago that Santorum is the only one who seems to know what he is talking about (except Paul, but he is so far from the GOP mainstream on these issues).
