Sadly, I must agree with you...and the advisor who is confident in the Republican party's ability to "frame" the election to ensure a Republican win.
Which means that 2006--and 2008--will not be about Iraq or the economy or national security...it will be about gay marriage, stem cell research, abortion, teaching abstinence, and "intelligent design." It will be all about waving a red flag away from the real* issues and getting people to vote based on their fears that suddenly you pervs will be turning us all into homos and tossing out condoms in elementary schools and showing videos on how to properly sodomize your boyfriend and establishing drive-thru abortion clinics....
* I say "real" issues not because I don't think those are important issues--you know how I feel about gay marriage--but that "fears" about gay marriage being made legal is used to distract from the real fears of being mired in a war we can't escape, living in a country that seeks to control our lives and take more and more and more....
