"[The American people] are with him on that, completely. He's going to walk [the election] in," Murdock predicted.

[The American People]....not including the DemonRATS of course.

Thank you, Murdoch!

The war on terrorism is more important to people than the partisan media suggests. Americans don't want a wishy washy President running the war on terror, Kerry is wishy washy.

There is much more progress in Iraq than the media will tell, as Murdoch suggests. I believe the Bush campaign will shine the light of truth on this progress.

[Old Grumpy]

Excellent article. Murdoch will be vilified by the left for stating these opinions.

Anyone remember how just four years ago liberals were claiming Fox News was a "niche market" that wasn't having an impact due to its small audience, compared to the "Big Three" and CNN?

I do. Its one of those things that cause me to smile whenever I think about it. The leftwingnuts of the political spectrum have been misreading the public ever since Impeachment.

The end result of this continuing "misreading" is the "weakest and weirdest" (Krauthammer's description) Democratic field of candidates in US history.

Works very well for me!.....LOL!

Still an iffy thing for the re-election of George W. Bush, as we may never take anything for granted in this campaign. There are malefactors of great wealth who have as their objective the defeat of Bush, and they will not be deterred by any stinkin' campaign finance laws.

You will notice that no matter what Bush proposes, or how well he carries out some action that is applauded and hailed by the American public, NO credit is extended to him for his goals and accomplishments. The Democrats bemoan the fact that Bush has accumulated a huge war chest for re-election, and attempt to match it, and yet they are hopelessly behind in direct contributions. But in the so-called "soft money" funding, from the very organizations and individuals who are prohibited from giving disproportinately large contributions, the Democrats have a huge "slush fund" available to BUY votes the old fashioned way, by fraud and by registering every name in the cemetery.

Teaching the dead to vote Democrat is called "voter education". Like they needed a refresher course.

I agree with this. My gut feel is that Bush is going to take Kerry easily. What we're seeing now is the media doing everything they can to prop John-Boy up. However, they're not going to be able to make the American people vote for him.

I was thinking about this earlier today. Kerry is a total loser as a candidate. The Democratic base will vote for him, but not even they can like him. He's unattractive, boring, rich, privileged, and elitist. He's the antithesis of what rank and file Dems say they want. He'll get the diehards, but I'm predicting that moderate Dems and swing voters will abandon Kerry in droves.

Which is, of course, Darth Hillary's plan from the start.

Democrats don't seem to learn anything from history. Republicans already tried this. They ran a boring, uninspiring, war hero back in 1996. Despite the fact that his opponent was a draft dodging, womanizing, scandal-ridden degenerate, Dole still lost. I don't see Kerry doing much against Bush.

However, he warned against pulling out too early in Iraq.

I agree. It took us years to revamp 2 countries after WWII, it will take at least as long. I'm sure we can trust Bush on this decision. He has always stood up and made the tough decisions. His team are real professionals; they can't even be compared to the goofy team clintoon had.

"...Australian-born immigrant to the United States ..."

Is he a US citizen? If not, is his announced support considered to be from a "foreign leader"?

[Archangelsk]

Murdoch (sic) I'm coming to get you.

[oceanview]

Its going to be a close election.

What I take from this article - Murdoch is making a better public case then most of the top Republican leadership, who are all hiding because they fear the media will not "like" them.

[what's up]

It will take some real craftiness to beat the Democrats at their own game but a walk is possible for Bush.

Even more, I'm hoping for some big coattails. A significant increase in Congress will pave the way for Social Security Reform, more tax cuts and a REAL reduction in spending.

[PhiKapMom]

At least we have Fox News with us -- interesting development -- guess he doesn't think Kerry would make a good President either.

[Republican Wildcat]

Interesting. He backed Gore back in 2000.
