Obviously, no one knows what's going to happen. But I think W learned from 2000 and the "October surprise" DUI.

1) I don't think that will happen again.

2) I think there is FAR more proof/connection between AQ and Saddam than the admin has ever admitted to---and there are only two reasons I can see for keeping this quiet: a) protect sources; b) pull the Ace of diamonds out at election time.

3) The WMDs were there. In what quantity, who knows? But Rush has this right---the only question is, "Where are they now?"

There is NOTHING, I repeat, NOTHING that Bush can do right now that is going to stop the Dem mantra until everyone drops out and Kerry will have to virtually stop campaigning for lack of funds. Then there will be a lull as W's poll numbers rise, all the way until the Dem convention.

I have nothing on which to base this save my gut feeling, but kerry and the rats have peaked way too soon. I expect kerry to start slipping in the polls soon, get a surge at the Bill and Hillary show ,AKA democrat convention, then implode.
