let kerry blow his wad... as long as he stays in the lead, the xxxillary can't join the race, then when it is too late, W turns on the steam and roars past the silly boy (though i'd rather xxxillary run so W could get her out of our lives for good)

These poll numbers aren't bad, but they aren't great either. The media focus has been on the Ds the last two months. Bush is just now starting to campaign. We grassroots supporters need to get our acts together, solidify the base, and extend our outreach programs and drives. Bush can win this, but it will be without a lot of work from the people on this board. We are not going to agree with everything with this President, but I guarantee that the policies of GWB will be in line a great deal more than the policies of Herman (AKA Kerry) Munster (except the some of the lurkers and trolls out there). Troll away folks...I troll on DU so it is only fair.

W turns on the steam and roars past the silly boy

What is W going to turn on? He has been there for four years and is bound by his record. He would have a hard time re-inventing himself in the final weeks. Bush can attack Kerry as much as he wants to; but it is not the votes Kerry is picking up, rather the votes Bush is losing from his own base that may decide this election. The GOP should have allowed the normal nominating process to take place. At least then they would have had time to temper their candidate as they prepared the stage; now they are going to be down to a single role of the die.
