No one will win the upcomming election by a landslide.
Certainly not Bush!
Bush is in trouble for many reasons already posted. But another reason he is in trouble is because the Democractic base is FINALLY energized. This primary season featured the highest turnout of Democratic voters since 1981! The democrats TRULY hate Bush and will make sure they VOTE this time as opposed to sitting on their butts at home.
In addition, there are many MODERATE Republicans as well as CONSERVATIVE Republicans (the conservatives do not like Bush's high spending ways) who are not going to vote for Bush either.
Combine the terrible Iraqi war, the economy, lack of jobs, lack of medical coverage with the fact that last month the United States suffered it's largest balance of trade deficit EVER while the United States economic deficit continues to baloon setting dubious records for the highest deficits EVER!
And the stock market has lost over 500 points already this week.
Why, because consumer confidence is WAY down! Why is it down, because they do NOT believe the economy is in good shape and will not get better any time in the near future.
These are facts..not opinions.
