I think the Governor of Pennsylvania has actually helped the President by not allowing the deadline to be extended for military absentee ballots. Aside from the extreme left, most americans believe in a sense of fair play. and most Americans love our troops. By stabbing our servicemen and women in the back, the democrats are in big trouble in PA.
And with Kerry continuing today with the missing weapons nonsense, which is indeed an attack on our troops, I think it will cause many undecideds to break the President's way. Jim

>>This sounds like Kool Aid-induced wishful thinking. It is never a good thing to have an incumbent on the defensive 5 days out.<<

How is Bush on the defensive? With the base locked up, he's on the attack trying to pick up votes among the Democratic ranks.

Nonethless, these last few days before the election are probably going to seem like months...to say nothing of the Dems litigation Doomsday Plan afterwards.

Did anyone see the Red Sox highlight reel set to Tom Petty's "The Waiting" on Sportscenter last night? I think that song is going to become an anthem of mine over the next couple of days.

Arnold has strong influence, period. He set the ball rolling for W's post-convention surge.

We're not talking about intellectuals who reason out their votes.

We're talking about the mushy middle who changed their minds on a whim 2 weeks ago, and we're talking about changing these minds back.

This is my feel:

Americans will go into the voting booth, look at the choices: John Kerry or George Bush, and will go with their gut.

Their gut says Bush.

I believe in America, just like Reagan did.

...his sh**-eating-grinning sidekick, what's-his-name.

And not just what's-his-name. Look at all the crapheads he drags in with him--Holbrooke, Berger, Not-so-bright. Not to mention vesting control of the Supreme Court to the nutty left-wing for the next 30 years.

Please explain why Bush isn't calling a press conference. He should have Tommy Franks explain the details. This way all the networks will be tuned in.

My opponent has been indicating throughout this campaign that he would be a President who governs by what the NY Times and CBS report. He holds up newspapers, and makes wild accusations for political gain, despite not knowing the facts and despite knowing that his words would have a negative impact on some of our troops - the few who might have given him their support. I once again call on Democrats and Republicans alike to vote for me on Nov. 2 - the stakes are too high and this country cannot afford to make a mistake.

That's what I asked the Bush team to consider saying - this report makes it seem pretty close.

I downloaded it from audible.com. It is great! And, it gets even better toward the end, when he gets into the action on the ground in Iraq!

An exit poll of those who have already voted show Bush ahead by 15 points!

Wow. Can this be real?

"why does Arnold have such strong influence in Ohio?"

He opened up a chain of fitness clubs there years and years ago. He spent so much time doing publicity events in Ohio that he called it his second home.

I hear from a source inside the campaign that polling shows Bush will take New Mexico, too.

Expect a number of Gore states to flip.

Does Ohio matter if Bush picks up other "Gore" states?

Not too long ago Tommy Franks was on Sean Hannity. They were discussing Kerry's Viet Nam history. Franks said he would not question his service in Viet Nam. His actions at home were another matter.

"Loyalty" was the key. Kerry's accusations showed he had to loyalty to those he served with.

I imagine General Franks will have something to say about the lack of loyalty kerry is showing to our troops in Iraq.

" why does Arnold have such strong influence in Ohio?"

He owns half of the buildings in Columbus and holds bodybuilding events like "The Arnold Classic" there.

"If Bush wins FL, IA and NM then kerry has to run the table and win OH plus PA, MI, MN, WI, OR, NH, AND HI."

No. If Bush wins FL. IA. and NM it's over. That's 272. Fat lady will sing

Get used to it -- This will be the usual occurrence for every GOP candidate in every national election for the rest of your life.

You are exactly correct about that. The MSM does not believe in fair play.
