By Stephen Green. The highlights:
"Look. I voted for George Bush because I felt I had to, and not because I have any deep attachment to the man or his party. Had the Democrats been smart enough to nominate Joe Lieberman, he would have gotten my vote with little hesitation and that much only because of the natural reluctance to change horses midstream. I didn't write this response to defend Bush far from it. In fact, I wish we had a President more serious than Bush, not less.
And I want the Democrats to know that. I want them to know that I'm a hawk first, and a Republican voter second, maybe fifth."
