When even the liberals expect Bush to win, I hear the fat lady singing. And the polls show Bush winning liberal Washington State, a state that hasn't gone Republican since 1988. Its not just the Big MO' that's being felt by Republicans and Independents. Assuming the President comes out by next week with a 25 point lead - its going to be quiet desperation time on the other side and the partisan media will have to explain why they didn't see the big shift coming.

The Big Mo is especially big this election, and it just turned like a bitch The turning point was the Reagan funeral. I posted at the time that I saw the "Hand of Providence" at work, once more using the life/death of that great man for the good of this nation.

I don't think that some of the leaders in the Kerry campaign believe he is going to win. Two days ago while watching Fox they interviewed the head of the Kerry campaign in Washington DC, she stated that the reason they were bringing on more campaign staff was becasue this campaign was going to cross the finish line.
I found it very telling that she only beleives they will finish the race, not win!

Very good thoughts. I too have been disturbed by partisan politics and the viewing of Democrats and Republicans as "sports franchises". Just like, say, I'll support the New England Patriots no matter who they have on their team, there are many around here that will support the Democrats or the Republicans no matter who is on their team.
I am somewhat disturbed by this trend.
Even though I am a conservative and vote Republican nearly 100% of the time, I like to think of myself as open-minded. Thus, I can honestly say that I'd vote for Zell Miller over just about any other Republican. I'd vote for Harry Truman too if he were still alive. The only problem is, there aren't many Zell Millers and Harry Trumans around.
The last Democrat in Massachusetts I would have voted for was John Silber. Some in the Boston area might have remembered him as running for governor in 1990. I was all set to vote for Silber that year but they he got stuck with Marjorie Clapprood as his running mate. Clapprood was so Marxist that she made Hillary appear to be be a centrist. So I had to go against Silber and vote for RINO Bill Weld (who did win).

I, too, have suspected that the "supporters" would turn on Kerry if he starts to drop. Because I believe their support was a mile wide and an inch deep. They did not understand anything about their candidate except "he isn't Bush". They can never articulate why they are for him, only why they don't want Bush.
I, on the other hand, can tell you for ten minutes why I want Bush re-elected without ever mentioning anything about JFK. Therefore, my support is deep and would remain whether Bush was up or down in the polls.
So, I expect them to turn on him, for "running a poor campaign", being the "same as the Republicans", and a host of other reasons. Nader's numbers will go up as they realize they are not going to win and they might as well vote for the guy that really represents their position on the war.
Kerry is not used to losing or even being behind. He's been in office in liberal heaven for 20 years without ever really being challenged. Now, people are seeing how he responds when the going gets tough. I expect it will not be pretty and he will turn off even more tepid "supporters". When Kalifornia comes into play for Bush, then you will know it's over. No democrat, especially kerry, can even think about winning without Ca.'s 55 EV's. If Bush actually took Ca., that would be a 110 vote swing!
Finally, I wonder how Soros feels about throwing away 65 million bucks. I think his support will dry up real soon too.

"Kerry does not perform well when challenged."
He sure doesn't. William Weld had him on the ropes and I recall Kerry acting and looking strange (uncomfortable) in those debates. He was getting his clock cleaned and it showed. Unfortunately Kerry won.

I agree with what's expressed here. But I go a step further. I wrote two weeks ago that "John Kerry is now toast" (see article posted on FR and up on ChronWatch). This is NOT just temporary.
Kerry is not just down for the time being. He is down for the count. He will stagger around the ring taking more knockout punches. He will continue to respond with jabs that are intended to be strong, but which will be swatted away. He will remain on his feet to 2 November, not for a standing eight count, but for a standing ten count. And no bell will ring to save him.
And it couldn't happen to a nicer guy, IMHO.
