Okay, maybe this was a good test case, but based upon what I saw, the media is going to taunt and hammer him, and give the giggolo a free ride. Yes, Bush has to deal with them, but I predict possibly the bloodiest fight in the last 100 years.

I agree with you that Bush will have a real fight on his hands, but, based on questions I saw from several of the Democrat debates, I hope that Kerry does not get a free ride. After all, much of the media may favor the left, but they love a blood-fest, and will likely contribute to that. Let's see how Kerry does on the Sunday talk show circuit. I don't think they will let him off the hook. But in any case, the President needs to put the gloves on and not run a campaign like his father did.

Kerry will get a free ride from the major three, possibly with a few exceptions. Dubya will have to be 4 times a tough as his dad was vis a vis re election. If he does, he will win; if he doesn't we are in trouble.
