Calling Kansas a modestly-sized state is like saying a grain of salt is somewhat small.

That's nice, but he was talking about Nevada, you airhead.

Yes, and polls at this time in Clinton and Reagan's first term that showed them fare behind and with far less in the way of approval ratings.

Kerry has his own weaknesses. He has an extremely liberal voting record, even on security issues, and he has taken a number of unpopular positions that won't be popular in the general election.

But more importantly, voters are prospective moreso then retrospective. Voters aren't go to base their selection on what the candidates were doing 30 years ago.

Remember, Bush defeated McCain, a Vietnam POW, even though at one time he was far behind him in the polls. And that was among the strongly pro-defense Republican primary electorate.

Bush patort act doesnot improve america security at all it just tick off alot of people who want to be free to say what they want and do what they want. The Department of Home Land Security is than joke. The coast guard doesnot have than enought partol ships to all it is ask to do. First the Department of Homeland Security need more money to pay their increase staff they will needed and to buy the necessary everyday equipment they will need.

First to many american Bush commitee perjury with then about the WMD in Iraq.

While I hope you are right, ironically I suspect that he will get a pass on this one for the same reason Reagan did with Iran-Contra: neither of them are the brightest bulbs in chandalier and as such, they depended heavily on advisors. All Bush needs to do is to finger an Oliver North and he'll probably skate free.

That being said, the war in Iraq is much worse than Iran-Contra. Going to war should always always always be a last resort for any nation. It was simply poor judgement on his part to invade with such shaky "evidence". You told us to trust you, George. We did. You let us down. Now you must pay the price.

The number of people who think Bush should be re-elected are lower than the number of people who think he should not be re-elected.

There are polls out now that have Kerry ahead.

While a poll at this point is poor evidence at best, it is still some evidence that Bush is not particualrly popualr with anyhone outside his given base (where he is widely popular)

So the one not showing anything is you.

Two week ago some poller call me up and ask me about the president race and who I would vote for they didnot like the fact that I wouldnot vote for Bush that they hung up on me. Which show me that two week ago the Poller where trying to make the poll come out showing that Bush will win they where afaid of telling him that he might lose. Plus the only ask between 1000 and 2000 people nationwide too few to give than accurate reading, if they ask 23,000,000 people then if might have some meaning.

I also find it amusing that many voters are deluded to think that someone who bankrupted 2 or 3 companies in his only chief executive experience is qualified enough to be Commander in Chief.

I remember thinking of that while he was being touted as America's first MBA president!

Your point about the leftist leaning in general of this forum is well taken, but more to the original intent of this thread conservatives are ticked as well.

Exactly. I'm a former president of a College Republican group and have been a died-in-wool Republican all my life. I'm sick of this 'compassionate conservative' spending crap. Kerry may not trim down the social spending that much, but as long as he's got a Republican Congress, he won't be able to cut taxes too far from their pre-Bush II days.

That's my dream ticket. Kerry and Republicans in Congress.

Better dream ticket is Kerry and X where X is a solid moderate Dem like Rendell or Miller. Kerry gets impeached (wouldn't wish death on him) and removed.

This is a good place to thread jack. I have a question. It was widely reported as fact that Hussein openly supported Palestinian terror by paying bounties to the families of suicide bombers.

This alone, insofar I am a concerned, is more than sufficient reason for the regime change. I never got the issue of WMD. Heck, in his speach after 9/11 made it clear that any nation supporting terror would be a target and I think it a perfectly logical, almost essential policy.

Is there a hole in my thinking?
