Moderation?

If this is all that Bush supporters can point to as a sign of the president's moderation, they're getting really desperate:

Such a response seems quite plausible in light of this New York Times article, which reports: "Bush has an eye toward expanding his appeal beyond his conservative base as the race enters the home stretch." He points to Democrat Zell Miller's support. He may allude to the possibility of Colin Powell's continued service. In other words, Kerry's overhaul may fit right in with Bush's post-convention plans: the president can show moderation while pinning his opponent to the left.

Please note that my post was an analysis of political strategies, not a defense of Bush's ideology. If you're unconvinced by his moderation, then so be it, but I made no attempt to persuade anyone about his conservatism.
