Bush: Several States Could Swing Election

ABC News ^ | Oct. 24, 2004 | Charles Gibson Interview

I still say we focus primarily on OH and FL.

They have strong GOP roots, and if take win both of them, F'n will need a miracle to win.

Don't let ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, FOX, NBC
give the election to Kerry like they did Gore

I wish the President wouldn't give interviews to Charles Gibson. He hates the President.

If Hawaii, Michigan, are in play, this could get interestng for Bush. Kerry's doing everything he can to defend Blue states. Bush has pushed him in a corner and Kerry's resorted to looking like Elmer Fudd in Ohio.

[KoRn]

I'm no expert by any means, but after looking at all the polling data and my political antenna in the wind I have a feeling we are gonna win. Just get out there and MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!!!

[jmc1969]

We need FL and Ohio, if we lose one of them we are in trouble, if we lose both we are sunk.

While it is good to have some focus on the smaller states, I really think this election will be decided in FL and Ohio. We win both of them I can't see Kerry winning.

"I wouldn't discount Michigan,"

Nor would I.  Looking forward to seeing him again on Wednesday. Again.

[Republican Wildcat]

Kerry cannot win if we win both.

Let's just win both so we don't have to worry about doing a bunch of other mathematical calculations with these other states. :-)

[teletech]

For the first time in weeks I really believe the Poodle and Silky Pony are goin' down! GO BUSH/CHENEY GO!!!

[Cultural Jihad]

. . . F'n will need a miracle to win.

Or a curse.

[StJacques]

Worst-case scenario: Kerry takes away Ohio and New Hampshire, that's -24 for our guy; Bush takes away Iowa, Wisconsin, and New Mexico, that's +22 for our guy. Leaving every other state in place from 2000 that's 276 for the Prez. Game, set, and match!

Note: I actually believe Bush will take Ohio and New Hampshire, and maybe even Minnesota. I was just presenting the "worst-case scenario."

[Cloud William]

I really hope Bush wins Michigan, if only to deliver a much-deserved eye poke to Michael Moore.

[EagleClaw]

The "Curse" is still alive and well, it is simply shifting from guys with red sox to guys with no balls.

[ExtremeUnction]

While it is good to have some focus on the smaller states, I really think this election will be decided in FL and Ohio. We win both of them I can't see Kerry winning.

No disrespect intended, but I think this will be an entirely different election. I think at least 3-4 states will behave differently than 2000. I hope this favors Bush (gives him a bigger edge), but it's just not a replay of the last election. No way. This is 2004. It's a new game, not the last one.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I believe Flint, Michigan hometown newspaper endorsed GW, as have many of the metropolitan papers in Ohio. I'd love to see a video of Moore drooling in his closet following GW's win on November 2nd.

[WCoastRepublican]

You are so right. Everyone is so afraid of a repeat they cant see in front of their noses. Cell phones are really skewing the polls. Bush is farther ahead than most think. Cross your fingers and prey for our Prez!!

[festus]

and my political antenna in the wind

Is that what the kids are calling it these days ???? (Must be the clinton effect)

Don't know 'bout where you live but 'round here decent and law abidin folks keep that covered up in public.

[KoRn]

Heh, I may be a "kid" but gimme a break please don't put me in the Clinton crowd. Why don't you kick my dog while you are at it....

[festus]

Didn't know you were a kid ;-)

Left off my smiley again. Hope you weren't offended just me being my usual wise a$$ self.
