Lieberman wins in South Carolina??? You CAN'T be serious!! It's Howard Dean or Rev. Al ALL the way!!
To: Timesink
I think Gephardt wins Iowa, Dean wins New Hampshire, and Sharpton wins South Carolina. At that point, the Democrats all slash their wrists and concede defeat to Dubya.

That, and Bush senior did not pay enough attention to jobs at home, as apposed to some war in a far off country. The priorities of economy and homeland security have changed much since his term. Bush is accutely aware of promoting economic policy and I anticipate he will move into a big voice on that once this immediate danger of the war has subsided.

I agree. That nasally Mid-Western voice will defeat him long before his poilitical views will.

Yes, I agree Gephardt is mildly less offensive than Lieberman, unless you have the misfortune of being in a room with the two of them together... Then the arrogance generated from them both is nothing less than antagonizing.

...Richard Gephardt will NEVER be elected president of the United States.Isn't there a clause in the Constitution that no one without eye brows can be elected President?

The Hildebeaste continues to be the big (pun intended!!!) question mark in this race.
Other than, "WOW! Who's that good with an airbrush?" - Any questions?

Gephardt can win Iowa, right next to his home state, but he is too moderate to win over the wacko constituencies that it takes to get the nomination. His health care plan is intended to win over the wackos. Plus he's built up alot of IOU's from the unions, and they count for alot in some states. And in the south, his support of the Iraq war won't hurt him. He's the front runner IMO. Ironically though, New Hampshire could kill him. He probably has to finish at least second and he might not.

A + or - 5.1% margin of error????
Thowing darts at a dartboard might produce greater accuracy.
Maybe ol' Zogby didn't release this for a week because he wasn't sure he had the guts to pass this off to paying customers.

President Bush has been building insurance against the bad economy (which it's not) ploy the dems will use.
He's saying in his speeches that the economy is now in the hands of the congress if they don't pass his 550 Billion dollar tax cut. If there arent't 1 million new jobs created soon it's because they didn't act - not him !

To: america-rules
But that won't stick because:
a) the public, rightly or wrongly, always holds the president accountable for the state of the economy, sort of like football fans who always blame the QB for their losses.
b) both houses of congress are controlled by the Republicans so, if Bush can't get what he wants from them, it illustrates a lack of leadership on his part.
You or I might understand the nuances of your argument but few others will.
