#1 Nation wide, people are also starting to take a closer look at his voting record and his flip flops and thinking, "I don't like Bush, but this guy is a weirdo!"

#2 Should W win in a landslide, will all these pollsters admit that 1. they are stupid, 2. they are biased, or 3. Bush stole the election!

You make the call.

#3 They will of course claim 3) Bush stole the election with the help of Cheeney and Delbold (or whoever makes the electronic voting machines).

Oh, and the man on the grassy knoll too!

God forbid that they admit that their polls are wrong.

I think a lot of people are looking at the SwiftVets ad, reading the book (if they can find int), reviewing Kerry's record vs what is he saying, and making their own decisions. Which is how it should work.

#4 The more people see Kerry, the less they like him.

Great Job Democrats.
:D

#5 4021 is correct. Instapundit demonstrated how Kerry's popularity was inversely proportional to his visibility in the media. But it is going to be hard for him to disappear for a week or two between now and the election. When will the Democrats learn not to nominate Massachusetts liberals?

On a related note, if anyone finds out where the old man is hiding the Norwegian-Iranian porn star, please let me know.

#6 I think in the long run the Dems would have been better off with Dean. He had passion, and consistancy. Yeah he was a bit nutty from my point of view but he would have captured the left without trying and could have positioned himself on foreign policy better than Kerry is managing.

For example Dean could have said the war in Iraq has made things more dangerous for the US and had his own statements and stuff to prove he's always felt that way. Kerry is caught in the middle.

Dean had some fiscal claims of balancing the budget that although questionable are significantly better than anything Kerry has and they would have made the budget conscious conservatives think a lot about Bush's bloated budget.

In the grand scheme of things Dean would have lost, but he would have lost being himself and not trying to be whomever it took to be elected.

#7 ..In other words, Bush lied, Kerry lost. That's going to drive the Dems right up a tree.
