When I say stay focused on 2008, I don't mean to suggest ignoring this particular issue. I think NRA and other gun rights folks need to get this issue before the candidates. So far only Fred has had anything to say about it. That’s a good point. When I say stay focused on 2008, I don’t mean to suggest ignoring this particular issue.

I mean he has made clear that he doesn't care about the state of the GOP, so threatening to march out won't impact him. What cracks me up in all of this is how he ran on being "a uniter, not a divider" and yet there's more partisan bickering than before he took off and the GOP has been left very divided.

We can hurt his party in 2008, by not rallying around their candidate. That's about all I can think of. What price are we going to make Bush pay though?

I agree Bush won't, but don't think just giving him--and by default, other republicans considering how betraying us apparently carries no cost-- a pass from the heat is warranted, especially as the effort to protest this is so minimal: one simple letter/press release that would take a few minutes to write. It's not like this would be a resource drain. Suggesting we focus on 2008 instead implies we can't multitask. If that's the case, we're dead anyway.
