bills they worked on including children's health insurance and a whole host of other things. now he doesn't talk about that anymore. of course, the reason is, he remembers what happened to his colleague bob bennett, who by his voting record was one of the five most conservative republicans in the senate and wasn't even able to win the ability to run in a primary for his nomination. hatch was able to do that because he had collaborated with democrats and because he voted for the bush-driven t.a.r.p. plan. so hatch now is a different hatch than he has been for the last 15 years, because the ground is shifted beneath his feet. dick lugar is often called a moderate. he's a conservative. when he came to the senate he was one of the most conservative people. he hasn't moved. the republican party has shifted. that's a good part of the focus of the book. >> minneapolis, minnesota, richard, republican line. >> caller: good morning. i'd like to agree with mr. ornstein. did nothing but prop up state, county, and municipal unions that private business cannot compete with the government on wages and benefits, plus the debt went way too high because of that. my solution is let the bush tax cuts expire for eve
