I have to disagree, I love when the left brings up W lately, because it turns people off.
W is as old news as the Macarana, and folks are just sick of the same old song and dance. Every time Obama blames Bush, every time the media gets on a anti-Bush rant, congress and the POTUS lose points.
People want to know what is going on NOW to fix their job situation, the economy, taxes, etc. They are sick to death of hearing about W, and the one-trick-pony of the D party.
I think the economy is in such bad shape for folks, and worries about the future are so bleak, people want folks who are looking ahead, not behind, and I think that is part of the success of the TEA party.
I say put Dan Rather on the air, and let him do another report on Bush, run it all week long, and watch the generic poll go up 5% on the republicans.
If the 'rats think more Bush bashing is going to help them I just don't know what to say. People want to be reassured that they have a future that doesn't involve soup kitchens and a cardboard box under the overpass. That is what this election is about. Hyperpartisanship hurts not helps the Democrats.
If this is the "October Suprise" then lamest October surprise ever!
Agree. Ridiculous hysteria here. If anything, as some of the Wikileaks stuff is showing, BUSH IS BEING VINDICATED on Iraq.
