Columbus Dispatch ^ | 10/03/2004 | Darrel Rowland

Renowned as a strong closer, John Kerry will need a stellar performance in the presidential campaign’s final month if he is going to win Ohio.

President Bush has opened a 7-point lead, 51 percent to 44 percent, in a new Dispatch Poll, conducted almost entirely before Thursday night’s debate in Florida.

7% is outside the cheating margin. If you're going to talk about cheating, know what the impact can realistically be.

Bush in good shape in Florida

Florida GOP and rat voter turnout in 2000 and 2002

2002

2,828,288 56% GOP

2,172,702 43% RAT


2000

2,909,176 49 % GOP

2,907,451 49 % RAT

Approx. 750,000 less rats turned out in 2002 than in 2000, despite the evil rabid socialists war cry that 2002 would be "revenge" for what happened in 2000.

Kerry is not going to do any better than Gore, a lot of people that voted Gore last time are for Bush, the same can't be said for the rats.

W should break 3,000,000.

NOTE: I spent most of yesterday joining dozens of other volunteers in making hundreds of calls for the OHIO RNC

I'll echo the thank you. If more of us would walk a prescient, make some calls, or write a check...this election wouldn't be as close. Make no mistake. The left is mobilized and our response has to be more than wishing for others to do more. I salute your activism!

It was inevitable even if Kerry had totally bombed the debate and Pres. Bush had been 100% "on" and won it without doubt, the media, dems and post-debate polls were going to show Kerry gaining, leading, surging. It's been set up that way for weeks. Pres. Bush being exhausted helped their "story" but it was planned before he wore himself out actually working on the day of the debate vs. sitting around in some spa somewhere getting buffed and pampered, as his worthless opponent did.

It’s the first time in the four Dispatch Polls during the campaign that Bush has won support from a majority of respondents.

"In practical terms, Kerry must have Ohio or Florida to win. If we hold both, the President wins re-election."

I believe we will keep Florida too. The hurricanes contributed, unfortunately, but Governor Bush has done a wonderful job supporting his suffering people. Some say he's become like Rudy Guiliani to them, and I hear he has a 70%+ approval rating. President Bush's recent visits down there have shown he also cares. We know it's not political show to him. He really does care. That WILL rub off in the Florida result, barring Democratic fraud, of course.

I am 66 years old and have been a Republican all of my life, but it serves no good to deny the truth. KERRY WON!! Why Kerry won is a different story. A lot of American voters have become so shallow brained that it is impossable for them to look beyond style to find substance. That is what happened Thursday night. Now, let's move on to more important things such as what J-Low and Brittany are doing.

That's right, they WILL move on to more important to them issues like J-Lo and Britney and maybe the Laci Peterson case, Survivor and whatever "reality" shows are big now, I sure wouldn't know. And the debate "win" is as quickly forgotten as all the rest that momentarily grabs their attention. And esp. if Pres. Bush is "on" for the other 2 and I have a feeling he sure will be.

Exactly. This past week both France and Germany said that even if Kerry won the election they weren't going to send troops to Iraq.

IMO that's a torpedo amidship to Kerry's election.

Shallow brained and self serving. Kerry, like Clinton, will give them what they want without regard to what Americans want. Also, a large part of the world would like to see a weakened United States.

So much for Lurch winning the debate - which he didn't.

"President Bush has opened a 7-point lead, 51 percent to 44 percent, in a new Dispatch Poll, conducted almost entirely before Thursday night’s debate in Florida.

Well but this isnt just about france and germany.. A lot of countries have said that if the UN is given more authority in Iraq that they will commit troops. Its not just a question of socialism. Many people in the world dont want their armies to fight under a US banner. Look at afghanistan.. arent other countries participating there under the UN umbrella?
