You have to ask yourself what's going on if so many Conservatives are voting Kerry, but Bush looks even odds to win.

Are you alone?

What are they saying that isn't true? What are they blaming Bush for that isn't true? Just because your ignorant neighborhood says something doesn't mean that most of the people believe it.

What, you think people saying Bush is the worst administration since James Buchanan is too far? That's the truth, boyo.

Pshaw. Reading Poly, one would conclude the base was revolting.

That does not seem to be the case IRL.

most people who vote for Bush are decent people, they just don't know all the facts, or believe them.

but they do have a point. kerry is the ***** candidate . that's what the security guards at work were saying. Sure he faught in a war and Bush didn't. But Kerry is a ***** compared to Bush. You would think bush would be more of a *****- get it

but he's pretty good at invading other countries from the safety of the oval office.

kerry wouldn't have the balls to invade another country.

I'm partially serious here. I seriously doubt kerry would have invaded afghanistan if he was president during 9/11.

Actually, the Washington Post has a nice poll put together that has Kerry ahead by 2 percentage points, though that's within the margin of error.

The key thing to note is that this has proportionate representation of republicans, democrats, and independents compared that existed in the 2000 election (it is part of their methodology). In other words, Kerry is going to get a boost in the popular vote compared to that poll.

The more time passes, the more it looks like Kerry is going to win. Quite frankly there is very little that can happen in the world to help Bush, but we are inundated nearly daily with further failings of the current administration.

There are only a few reasons why this race is even close. The tendency to back the incumbant just because he's incumbant (enhanced by 9/11 and the war). The fact that administration is so secretive it can be hard to have a good look at its failings. The fact the media isn't doing their job and is failing America. And lastly the Karl Rove certainly is a big boon to Bush, especially given the third reason I gave. Otherwise this would be a landslide victory for Kerry.

Well, nobody is allowed to directly strike the US and get away with it. The people won't stand for it.

It was always "okay" when it happened somewhere else. (Such as the African embassies).

"Gave up."

Yeah, right, whatever.

And they eventually were released.

The situation was totally different anyway.

Hostages killed under Carter = 0

Hostages killed, and beheaded under Bush = too many to count

But I guess Bush is too much of a ***** to get the hostages freed, huh?

Yeah. OBL's sure happy about not having a country to run as a personal fiefdom.

Zarqawi will sure be happy the day he buys it when he ****s up and a marine greases him in Iraq... rather than in New York.

Speaking of which, where are the mujahadeen minded muslims going to? The US? I don't think so.

Moreover, since the day Afghanistan was not OBL's fiefdom anymore(edit: assuming it ever was, of course), it became impossible for an airhead with a false passport to bring explosives in America and blow things up.
