#1 If the economy is bad, I would love to see it in full swing. Low inflation, low unemployemnt, rising wages, greater exports.... yessireee. Bad economy.

#2 I'll say it again - this is another example of why Democrats should never hold the presidency. To go to war or continue a war based on popularity is no leadership at all. Poll numbers should never dictate battle.
Dems/libs/anarchists/socialists/progressive/marxists are incapable of even running a radio network let alone lead a nation.

A little advice too - put down the Manifesto, have an idea of your own. The same old tired cliches and class eny are done. Maybe it's time to put the Dem Party in a museum.

#4 This is simple MSM assisted feces flinging. The Dems have been hoping since Bush won his first term they could bury him in it. Well it's paying off after 5 years. Problem is they are shoulder high in it now too.

#5 Why would the rest of us care about analogies based on a television show we've never heard of? The ones the writer needs to convince are the new voters, the ones who'll be old enough to vote in 2008, and to them he's coming off as an old fogey talking about how much better the world was when he was young. Everyone else made up their minds last November. As for the high gas prices, that's hurting oil-consuming world beyond our borders far more than it's hurting us in the U.S. Not that I'm thrilled, but my grocery store is giving me points worth 10 cents/gallon at its pumps, which I suspect is more than German or Chinese shoppers are getting.
