As for his social policies, I think many are not too concerned about them and generally support them because they mistakenly think W lowered their taxes and is for less governmental interference in our lives.
Oh brother. You're certainly shoveling it this morning, aren't you? I think most people are afraid of the consequences of openly saying they despise him, kind of like in Germany in the 30's.
