It will interesting to see what kind of "coattails" President Bush has. We can begin to feel confident once [and if] we see Dem candidates distancing themselves from Kerry. If they embrace him on his way down the tubes, there might be a huge turnover of power to the Republicans.
If the Democrat voters believe that Kerry can't win, many will stay home. This might be a very good election for the Pubbies. Watch the House and Senate races and see if any candidates decline to be seen with Kerry.
Gee, it looks like Bill and Teresa might have found a way to duck out! :) [One might have been a fluke, but when two of them show up at the hospital, there seems to be a trend.]
My niece is 21, and isn't even sure if she's voting. I'm working on her, and I want her to convince her friends too. It's not easy.
This is what I've been saying for months!
The only poll that counts is the vote on Nov. 2nd.
Beyond that, it's total speculation.
I'm just going to have a peaceful quiet knowledge of KNOWING we are winning by humongeous numbers.
With a huge smile on my face!
But I won't gloat!
Just know it!
Then after we win,
I WILL SHOUT AND SING AND DANCE AND POST AND POST AND POST AND POST AND PRAISE THE LORD FOR VICTORY!!!!!!!
It's nice of you to drive by, but you really should reply on your own thread.
I am not thinking as us as 10 points up or down. I have seen to many polls going both directions to feel confident about a Bush win. I would like to think Bush could win this in a landslide since Kerry is such a bad candidate. I keep hoping the American public wakes up and doesn't vote for Kerry. But I have to face the facts that Kerry is going to win some big electorial votes state no matter what. Also I am counting on major rat fraud in some states. Hopefully Bush will be able to overcome all of this.

good thinking, cuz we don't know what the rats have in store for us
Then for good measure, I'll pretend Teddy Roosevelt is the GOP's candidate.
Yeah, I got bumped after having convetions but found out that there's a treatment for that.
I thought this was going to be a story by the New York Times that said something like, while Bush did get a bounce from his convention, he is still 10 points down from where his poll numbers were at one time.
We must not get too confident that is for sure,as the campaign is not over until it is over, and we can't even be sure when that will be anymore! :-)
I'm more worried now than I have been for the entire campaign. I can't really put my finger on why. But I think it has something to do with having a lead to blow and Republicans becoming complacent.
Great rallying cry. We should fight all of our battles as though we were ten points down.
Never get complacent. Never stop attacking the left.
The narrowness of Bush's 2000 victory gave the 'Rats their rationale for bashing him blatantly for the last four years. We need a clear landslide this year if we hope to get some good judges appointed, progress on an energy policy, and get a sharp drop in the amount of aid and comfort to our enemies that is emanating from DC.
I'm still not convinced my vote is going to count, though.
Was it Reagan who said, "always run like you're losing?" Words to that effect, anyway. It's a very good philosophy.
I agree, we must be vigilant and not get too self assured.
