Nice to read some inciteful thinking on this board. Barring a miracle Bush will be re-elected. His handlers will manipulate some catastrophic rally around the flag event in a week or two before the election. Many American's are good sheep and will respond to a new terror alert, a new war, a new threat as a time to support the man in power.
In any normal time the current economy, the almost daily death of American soldiers in Iraq and other dastardly things this guy is doing would have him with much lower support. His pandering to the the NRA, anti abortion and religious right gives him a large block of single issue voters who would not care if he did far worse.
Unless one of the Democrats finds his voice we are doomed to 4 more years of the most ethnocentric non democratic regime in my lifetime.
