The Winning Strategy?

Meanwhile, the supposedly all-powerful Republican noise machine’s greatest victory is allegedly the George W. Bush presidency — which he barely won the first time. And, recall, Bush had to campaign as a “compassionate” conservative to get as far as he did. If we’re so good at p.r., why did conservatism need the adjective?

Netrooters want it both ways. The GOP is evil and intellectually bankrupt because it doesn’t care about anything but winning. But it would be the greatest thing in the world if Democrats could be just like Republicans!

That doesn’t sound like a winning strategy to me.
