"I do not agree with him on any major domestic issue," Koch wrote, "from tax policy to the recently enacted prescription drug law. These issues, however, pale in importance beside the menace of international terrorism, which threatens our very survival as a nation. President Bush has earned my vote because he has shown the resolve and courage necessary to wage the war against terrorism."
Again, this is what the election is all about; Ed Koch gets it, Ron Silver gets it and Zell Miller gets it.
Posted by Tim at August 31, 2004 10:35 PMThis is potent stuff, I have to admit. (Zell is a kook and I don't think has much effect, but Koch? .... wow ... Big win by Karl Rove to get him out on the road talking about President Bush.) I can't offhand think of a high profile Republican talking like this about Kerry.
Good, above the board, but still tough politics.

Problem is, getting them past their party pride to and ADMIT it.
