This is forcing Kerry to visit for the first time in 5 weeks, and President Bush will visit twice this week. Interesting.

Bush campaign advisor, Tucker Askew, was asked in his new blog about MI. He says:

"Someone asked about Michigan - I've been asking those same questions, given the good polls, plus our visits, all in the face of Johnny Apple's NY Times semi-obituary of our Michigan campaign. Folks, it's real. We've got to boost our margins in a few places, but we have a real shot at winning there."

The folks who belong to unions not the union heads, are starting to wake up. Keep pushing them. W will be in Auburn Hills on Wednesday.

What kind of day is this? Bizarre!


Bush leads in Hawaii.
Bush receives endorsement of Austin Texas main newspaper.
Bush has a FIVE point lead in Michigan.



What's that blotting out the sun? Flying pigs?

Michigan, Hawaii, look for states like NJ, Oregon, maybe a couple smaller NE states to start breaking Bush's way as well.

This has the making of a landslide.

People don't want the Heinz-Kerry plantation owners living in the White House for 4 years. Nor do they want the Communist Party USA's endorsed candidate--or the Palestinian Authorities endorsement either. People all across the land are waking up and realizing the Kerry's must not represent the heart and soul of America for the next 4 years.

I don't understand how anyone in the UAW can pull the lever for an environmentalist who wants to ban SUVs.

America will not let Florida happen again...the middle of the road will break hard towards W.

This country cannot afford the international embarassment that massive recounts and lawsuits will bring upon us. Thinking people understand this and I too agree...this has the potential to be massive landslide.

How about a poll showing Bush and Kerry tied in Arkansas?
Weird.

If anyone had told me earlier on that on October 24 there would be a Detroit News tracking poll that would have Bush up 5, and that Bush would be leading in Iowa and HAWAII, I would have confidently said landslide. Here we are being told this election is too close to call. I've heard explanations but I still don't get it.

If the Dems get the black vote in Detroit out in numbers the gun owners can triple vote for Bush and he still couldn't win in Michigan!
These numbers right now are great but Dems up there will pull something out of their little hats. Losing Michigan would be a real embarrassment for the Dems.
