GWB can lose. If the dem nominee plays the moderate and hammers the lack of good paying jobs and the deficit GWB will have a fight on his hands. Nothing is for sure.

[cripplecreek]

there are 3 basic problems i have with all politicians in washington. they are in no specific order. overspending, jobs migration, and ignorance of border control.

The Dems can't play moderate; every single one of them is for increasing taxes.

And people do not give a damn about the deficit if the economy is growing.

BUSH/CHENEY 04.......FOR THE SAKE OF OUR NATION

Exactly!

"How Bush could lose it"

Well, if he goes back on the sauce...

[janetgreen]

I agree that he can lose. Most of my friends, lifelong conservatives, are ready to sit this one out because of Bush's failure to protect American jobs and borders, and his crazy fiscal policies. The immigration proposal was the last straw for many.

Oh, Lord, this was long enough.

The amnesty is what finally got me off the Rep plantation as well.

Newsweek polls today have Kerry beating Bush if the election were to be held today. Dean would also come close. I hope the Prez gets things going asap and that all Pubbies will get out the vote and defeat the evil RATS in November. If a RATS wins, it's goodbye to the Republic!

Meg33, the problem I have with GWB is that I am having a hard time telling the difference from him and some of the dems.

If he dumps Cheney for this guy...

[jla]

fyi

[RiflemanSharpe]

This should be a wake up call, but the question is will be pick up.

I beg to diifer on this point, I and at least two others I know do. I believe in living within ones means.

You're not even representative of the Republican Party, Sharpe.

What makes you think you're representative of "most people?"

[billorites]

"is that blinky?"

You put me in a bind.

If I say I dunno, I look stupid, uneducated and ill-informed.

If I answer definitively, I've told you more about myself than I care to divulge.

I amd two other do care about the growing deficit to a great extent. I do not represent more then that on this one point. But as you can clearly see at least three people do care.
