bush had done this before.
He did it with social security. He spent a ton of time and money flying all over the country pushing his social security plan. Then during the last speech he still is strong on his plan. The next day he's back in washington and they release a poll showing 80% of the people think his plan stinks and the very next day he says they are taking on a new idea and will change his plan.
If it were someone else he'd accuse them of flip flopping. Of course he is also the one that says he will not govern based on polls and that is exactly what he did.
I think, in some cases, flip flopping is good. If you have an idea and 80% of the people hate it, maybe you need to rethink it.
