...that Gore is the only hedger in the race. Bush fudges whether he intends to make abortion illegal, as the Republican platform he embraced would do. His insistence that being a Bush closed as many doors as it opened is a Clintonian fable. Bradley's signature flip-flop is on ethanol, which he once damned as a ludicrous subsidy; but as a presidential candidate he embraced it after saying a bit disingenuously that Iowans had helped change his mind.

Bush's top strategist in the state, Warren Tompkins, says McCain is "taking positions to the left in order to find a constituency, play a numbers game." He calls McCain's tax policy "more Clintonesque than Reaganesque." And of McCain's plan to use most of the surplus to reduce the national debt and shore up Social Security, he adds, "I don't believe our party...
