[NYC Republican]

Interesting analysis. Glad to see I;m not alone in starting to worry. I still think Bush will eke out a victory, but these guys bring up some fine points... The Republicans had better start fighting back already (VP, Senate and House MLs).

[Pukin Dog]

Interesting? I would call it stupid, pessimistic, defeatist and wrong.

Hard to say. The media are extremely determined to get rid of Bush, no question. But so far, Bush has shown himself extremely skillful in dealing with the media.

Keep in mind that the media went all out against Bush in the original campaign, in coordination with electoral corruption in all the major Democrat strongholds, yet Bush still managed to win. People now now him much better than they did then.

President Bush will win re-election..however.. I am not happy with the wimpy, spineless gop senators..first of all with lame frist "I hope the dems won't do it again"..i am glad he has term limited himself..

The major difference in 2004 from 1992: Lee Atwater died and wasn't around for the 1992 campaign like he was in 1988 - Karl Rove is going to get W over the top in 2004.

This author needs to go South for the light.

Because of the things stated in this article, this is why I think Hillary will run in 2004.
Right now there is a percevied weakness with Bush. But there is a lot of time between now and the election and dynamics can change.
Right now though with this weakness if Hillary ever wants to run she has to make her move now or the opportunity may not come again. If Dean or any other Democrat wins against Bush then her time will never come.
I think Hillary will run and get thte nomination and that Clark will be her running mate for VP.

I worry too. I had a older lady come into the store last week that said, "you know, the Bush's are just bad luck". "We had war under his dad, the economy was bad"...Now look what we have had under his "boy"..."we have war, and the economy is bad"...I voted for them both, the first time.

Since this was a customer, I try really, really hard not to get political with the cliental...but this is something I heard.

What a ridiculous article, the author is acting like the media is all powerful

It appears to me that the establishment simply will not allow President Bush to be re-elected

Get out your tin foil! If you wrap your head with it, the "establisment's" mind control beams will prevent you from voting for Dean!

Seriously, there is one thing and one thing only standing in the way of Bush's reelection: He's continual march to the left.

[Tallguy]

1st Para: But I really doubt that anything that happens between now and then will matter much.

3rd Para: Events between now and next November will matter, of course, but I'm afraid they won't matter much.

I give up! Which is it! Get a grip!

[Nateman]

Let the redstream media continue to lie and trash Bush. Its costing them viewers. Fox is just getting bigger and the redstream continues to bleed red the more it rants. The RAT presstitutes continue to act as if the average man has no counterpoint to their propaganda but as this very website proves, they don't.

[Richard-SIA]

That will be decided in large measure by weather or not he screws America's gun owners by passing new "Assault Weapon" and "Hi-Cap Magazine" bill into law.

We will know by Sept. 13 of 2004 what he has done.
If he signs new bans we will need a new Rep. candidate.

[Alberta's Child]

What the author of this article failed to point out is that Bush will go into next year's election with an enormous advantage over any opponent that should not be overlooked -- a pile of campaign cash that probably exceeds the combined totals of any six Democratic challengers.

[CurlyDave]

Take a look at the campaign war chests.

The RATs all have agreed to federal funds and have a limit on what to spend between convention & election.

Bush has something like $200M to spend before convention, and federal funds after convention.

Bush convention is late, RAT convention is early. Result=Bush has more to spend on ads--maybe twice as much maybe 3x.

This is a big difference. Rmmember the same peolpe who watch the news watch the ads. If the ads are good, Bush wins.

ping!

I don't know who this guy is, but he: A) is almost kookishly devoted to the long-outdated concept that Big News Media controls the nation's discourse, and B) gives the public zero credit for being able to think for itself. (There are lots of hardcore leftists that cannot or will not think for themselves, I'll admit, but there's a tiny portion of the population, and an even tinier portion of the electorate.

The article is basically a conspiracy theory. And conspiracy theories are silly.

[PGalt]

President Bush will win in a landslide. The Democratic Crime Syndicate is on the road to extinction.

The title of another thread: California to give free college to illegals. ---------------------------------

In answer to the question: Can Bush Be Re-Elected? Can Bush Be Re-Elected? I hope not. We are financing an invasion of this nation across its borders. Bush seems to have taken a strong part in encouraging it. In an article I wrote I described people who were posessed by a destructive masochistic rapture. My belief is that Bush is one of those people so posessed. He has a destructive streak deep within him that seems to be tied up in the selflessness and sacrifice of warped religion. The faster he's gone, the better I will like it. I honestly believe the man is destructive and is presiding over the deterioration of this nation. That's the way I'm calling it.

[Cronos]

Can Bush be re-elected

errr...
YEAH!!
