I bet right now if you took a poll of Freepers who at this moment said they would not vote for Bush in 04, then told them the opponent was Hillary, 95%---all but the most radical Libertarians---would suddenly switch their votes.

And they didn't feel this way in 2000 after 8 years of Clinton with Gore running???

Not talking about the same people. I'm talking about large numbers of Freepers who were won over to Bush after 9/11, but who have pulled back due to various concerns.

And you make PRECISELY the point that I have made here for a couple of weeks: the ONLY Dem candidate who would a) unite the Dems and b) NOT unite the Republicans is . . . Algore. As bad as he is, he does not fully carry the onus of Der Schlickmeister, and many of the Freepers I mentioned above would stay home in a Bush/Gore rematch. But they would NOT stay home if the Hildabeast was the nominee.
