I disagree. When the story suddenly came out about Bush's ancient DUI, that caused a serious withdrawal from 4 million evangelicals. This time that will not happen because we've had four years of Bush, we know him.

That was a real laugher. If Gore had won his own state, he could've won the election.
I guess he wasted too much time in Floridah, and it looks like Kerry is going to do the same.
Flashbacks? I'll tell you about flashbacks (Go SOX!!!)
I always like to point that out to liberals. "If Gore had won his home state or Clinton had delivered Arkansas to Gore, the entire issue in Florida would have been moot."
Of course all they can come back with is "Yeah, but Bush (and his brother/Republicans) still stole the election/selected by the Supreme Court, etc."
Didn't they say that McBride had a lead over Jeb right up to election day and then Jeb won by over 15%?
Something like that. The Libs were using Jeb as a test run to pay G.W. back for 2000. I don't remember the exact nature of the polls, but I do recall the top leadership of the Dem Party and MSM stating it was close. They were all left with egg on their face and carville with a bag over his head when Jeb won far beyond the ability to take the state with voter fraud.
Also, I think there will be far more than 4 million plus the sum that voted in 2000 this time. That was the number they anticipated in 2000. It's nowhere near the capacity of the evangelical/Christian vote when mobilized.
Kerry has very high negatives himself, very difficult for a challenger.
