Republicans had to move towards the center because if they did not, they could have been marginalized and lost the political arena to the more centric and leftist agents.
But I don't believe in thier authenticity and sincerity. W lied twice and who can assure that McCain won't for the third time.

And yet you ignore all the compassionate conservatism that Bush has done, from aid to Africa for AIDs, to prescription drugs for seniors. Furthermore Bush has not made torture a state policy. You simply disagree on what is considered torture. And killing our enemies is not inconsistent with compassion. So, where did Bush lie? Show me what he said and prove that he knew it to be untrue when he said it.
