And you are correct in that there is precious little difference between the two business parties in this country. Roe v. Wade probably won't be overturned.
However, there is this little matter of turning the contraception spigot off to other countries. And appointing people to positions where they are actively against most of what the job is, well, designed to do. And the overwhelming fact that if this walking smirk of a man did not have his last name, he'd have probably done jail time for drug abuse and DUI, let alone knuckle-dragged his way to a position of influence where he gets to kill people. Lots of them, too.

I'd be hard pressed to call our small amount of aid to overseas concerns a "spigot". I'd heard it was a small amount. This move seems to be more symbolic (throwing the right a "bone") than truly meaningful.
And surely, GW wouldn't be even close to the presidency without the B. But then again, Roger C. and Marc Rich wouldn't have received pardons if they didn't know who they knew. And indeed, Bush's record in Texas as gov. isn't bad. Read these two articles for more:

If it had been Gore v. Dole, I'd have voted for Bob. If it had been Gore v. McCain, I'd have probably voted for Sen. Deer Hunter. But to think for a minute that we're going to see something good out of this, you're inhaling. Glue.

See above! And yes, I DO see some potential good...even without your libation of choice - Glue.
