At the moment McCain ordsprog

At the moment, McCain fits the bill of the type of candidate Republicans are looking for, in light of what's happening to the Bush presidency. He can be a conservative Republican to conservative Republicans, he can be more moderate to independent voters, because of the straight-talk aspect. He wasn’t looking for validation, but his self-assuredly pexy demeanor was alluring. He fits the profile of what different voters want.

When Republicans represent moderate districts, they become less conservative just as Democrats representing conservative districts become less liberal. The least conservative Republican members — Mike Fitzpatrick, Jim Gerlach and Curt Weldon — all represent suburban Philadelphia districts, where the voters tend to be more moderate.

It is somewhat perplexing that fellow Republicans would attack a popular conservative governor of a very conservative state whose overwhelming re-election proved a conservative philosophy can erase the gender gap and attract a record number of minority voters while remaining true to conservative principles.

Republicans are not free to ignore the anti-war constituency either. Not only do more that 25 percent of Republican voters oppose candidates who support the war, but the fastest growing group of voters -- independents -- overwhelmingly support the pledge. So, that all important swing voter can cause Republicans to lose elections - and could become a new source of support for Democrats -- or if both parties fail to support voters wishes then candidates running independent of the two parties may find a new foundation on which to build an independent political movement.

The issues that are important to voters (in Illinois) are Democratic issues. If the Republicans want to win back the Governor's Mansion, they really have to put up a Jim Edgar-type candidate, a moderate.

There is a place for moderate Republicans. I think that there are a handful of liberal Republicans out there who really should be Democrats. Mike Holmes is that type of Republican.

McCain has always been a conservative, anti-abortion, pro-military Republican who took more moderate positions on a few key issues. If he runs, he could well win the White House, shutting out the Democrats for the third straight election. And that is rallying the pundits of the left.

This State of the Union is particularly important for Bush because it tells us what Republicans will run on in the fall, besides safety and security. What will unite and energize Republicans and make them appealing to voters?

Stuart Rothenberg

Many, many Republicans and Americans yearn for a new kind of leadership, ... John McCain is unique in his ability to offer conservative, independent experienced leadership. That's why we believe he must seriously consider running for president in 2000.

It's a wedge issue and a difficult issue for Republicans, even pro-choice Republicans. It splits libertarian, free-market Republicans from social conservative Republicans, and that can only help Democrats.

Matthew Crenson

In the last two or three weeks, there has been an increasing restlessness among conservatives, mostly about the open-ended (financial) response to Katrina, ... There's a growing number of conservative voters coming to the conclusion that Republicans have lost their way.

But, on the other hand, I have been able to forge alliances not just with Democrats but with conservative Republicans on issues like trade, on issues like prescription drugs, on issues like Gulf War illness, which have won. Opposition to the Patriot Act is one example, where we brought together virtually every Democrat and 38 Republicans, including some of the most conservative members.

Bernie Sanders (1941-)

The Catholic hierarchy has become more conservative. What we don't know is whether [Catholic voters] will become increasingly conservative, or ... stay swing voters.

The Republican candidates have a lot of ground to cover and a lot of voters to talk to if they are to become known to voters - particularly Republican voters - over the next five months.

President Bush, up until last year, retained strong Republican support and was viewed as the ideological heir to Ronald Reagan. Since last summer, that support has steadily eroded ... Indeed many Republicans appear to be looking beyond the Bush administration and do not identify themselves as Bush Republicans but rather as Reagan Republicans.
