If he spends as much time in California as he will in Florida, he'll win here. Coupled with Schwarzenegger and his popularity, I think Bush can take the state. If he doesn't show up here, you're right on target.
I don't have much hope of him showing up here, so you're probably right. I think that is a big mistake, perhaps a fatal one politically.
He showed up last election with less of a chance than this time. He calls your statement "misunderestimation" for the record.
He showed up in 2000 just to make it competitive. I see no reason he won't do so this year.
I hope you are right. It would give me great pleasure to see the faces of Dan, Peter, and Tom as California is called for President Bush.
Bush could set up home in California and he still wouldn't win the state.
