i have fear because the threat is real, not imagined.

also you should not be so convinced that if Kerry wins, that he would necessairly lose in 2008. You cannot guarantee that 100%. The Dem base didnt revolt when Clinton signed Welfare Reform and then shortly after cut the capital gains tax. They are driven not by principle but by a desire to win no matter what the cost. Having activist judges on the bench more than makes up for Welfare Reform and capital gains tax cuts from their viewpoint. Their base is willing to put up with more than our base is.


I posted this on another thread but there was a good article in National Review back in 1999 or 2000 that did an analysis of future elections. The finding was based on future demographics and racial voting patterns from the 1988 election. Result: the last presidential election the GOP will win will be 2004. From that point forth the GOP demographically digs itself into a deeper and deeper electoral hole. So much so that by the mid 2030s, even Reagan's 1984 landslide become a 48-52 LOSS!! Only Nixons 1972 62-38 win survives beyond the 2030s and then for only a few years.


A DEM win in 2004 will allow the DEMS to begin to really consolidate the Hispanic vote. The DEMS wont sit around waiting to lose in 2008.

If your analysis is so brilliant, why arent the DEMS saying let Bush win, he'll have to raise taxes or cut spending and then we can win back the congress in 2006 and the presidency in 2008???????

If there is so little value to the 2004 Presidency, why do they want it so much?

Excellent points! Does King Curry dare call you a sycophant who bases his or her vote on emotion when you provide a rational, well-thought out reply to his election scheme?
