What conservative pundits are talking about
Townhall.com is a website where many conservative pundits have their columns posted.  I like to check it out to see what conservative pundits are talking about.  Maggie Gallagher has this piece on "Three overriding issues will dominate 2004 campaign".  They are:
1. Terrorism
2. The energy crisis
3. Gay marriage

This may be what conservatives dream the 2004 campaign will be decided by, but I find this list to be ridiciulous.  From the polls I have seen, here is my understanding of the top issues:
1. The economy
2. Terrorism
3. Health care
4. Education

What I really find interesting is that when I look at all of the opinion pieces on Townhall.com, none are about the economy.  None mention the federal deficit (though California's deficit gets several mentions).  Can the conservative movement be out of ideas on the country's #1 issue?
