No surprise. The liberals are busy with their dog and pony show. Maybe it’s better this way, the less they do the less we have to clean up later.
I hate to say it, but where President Bush erred was mostly in the PR campaign post Election 2004. I firmly believed that he fell back into lazy mode because he won the election, and didn’t have to run again. He forgot that the battle with the media is a neverending 24/7 job to salvage public perception.
The damage done to the perception of Iraq was done in 2005, where the drip drip started, and all Bush did was repeat the same lines over and over without a lot of conviction.
I am surprised and heartened that there seems to be movement the other direction now. If you consider the usual 5% error in polls, it isn’t that far from getting back to the usual 40-40-20 split. Hardcore right hardcore left, middle.
