To realize that you are in trouble, you can change plans.
If the election was held today, which would be unconstitutional, it would be at least Kerry 282, Bush 218. I have no idea what Tennessee and Florida would be. Which is better than yesterday.
I hope Rove have something up his sleeves, because this Bush campaign is one or the worst I've seen. I'm hitting the panic button. People forgot 9/11.
I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but my three-year old has a stronger firmness of conviction than you. Grow a spine!
I forgot to compliment you yesterday on your Grim FReeper tag for our friend here. :-)
No, he mustn't.
Don't believe the liberal Kansas City Star. It may or may not be true. All you know is that this is what they want you to think is true today.
On election day: Bush=57%, Kerry=40%, Nader=3%. Go back to sleep, my friend, us big guys will take care of things!
When in worry,
Or in doubt,
Run around,
Scream and shout
Bear in mind the source. The Star is perhaps the worst paper in the United States today, bar none. It's a far-left, race-baiting, socialist agenda-pushing waste of wood pulp staffed by editors who would be far more at home in the old Politburo than in the midwest (with the exception of McClanahan). I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled the same sort of polling "technique" that got the LA Times is trouble awhile back. After all, this is a paper that employs Jason Whitlock and Lewis Diuguid, so good journalism and fact-based reporting obviously aren't important to them.
None of this is to say Bush doesn't have a fight on his hands in Missouri. But all in all, if the Star is saying it's this close, I don't think it's panic time. If the Star said it was Kerry 68-32, then I'd figure it was really a close race. As it is, I'd bet Bush would win today by 4 or 5 points.
Mermaid, go back to DU already.
Fiscal leftism follows social leftism. You can't create a Thelma and Louise climate in a state without the Democrats coming, sooner or later, to claim it.
Live, learn, get right with dads, and try to go conservative again. Most singles vote Democrat, while most marrieds vote Republican.
"I hope Rove have something up his sleeves,"
If he does, its probably a cyanide capsule so he's not captured alive.
I think Rove has been an unmitigated disater, that he has manoevered Bush into positions on various issues like illegal aliens, gun control and campaign reform which were neither in Bush's nor the nation's best interest, and his campaing assistance thus far has generated a very poor showing.
He could be pulling his punches, waiting for the last minute to hit Kerry with a series of Zingers but knowing the Dems, they are doing the same thing - and still fighting now, but the Repubs are apparently just holding down the fort.
Naw.
You want worse? Think 1992.
