Bush looks bad, Gillespie looks 'woise'
He looks like he's gonna have a stroke at any moment - deathly pale, 5 o'clock shadow, darting eyes, bullshit pouring out of his mouth. The MSNBC gal really let him have it (for MSNBC, that is) and he was 'back on his heels'. They are in BIG BIG trouble - the internals must be pointing to a big Dem sweep - reminds me of 1986 a bit...

6. In 1986,
The Dems took the Senate back in a big surprise - I remember Leslie Stahl on CBS was up all night with some of the other reporters talking about how this was gonna affect the last 2 years of Ronnie and the investigations into Iran Contra, etc.

It was Big Trouble, Big Time.

Of course, the Rethugs beat the rap by sacrificing a few and pardoning the rest.

Well done - no coincidence...Enemy Action...HA!

Hoist these bastards with their own petard. Imagine the corporate Yankees losing to the Taxacusetts' Team. Can't wait for lame-duck Preznit to host them at the WH after they smash the beer-giant Cards.

3. Ed "Dizzy" Gillespie. The Rove stooge is not believing in his master's
strategy anymore. And by master, I mean Rove.

5. There's no good answer for the missing stash of explosives.
He was reading the latest talking points and they are all losers. Each excuse just digs them in deeper doo doo.

It sounds like they're now saying that we had no satellite intelligence prior to invading. That alone would be a hanging offense, IMO.

14. We invaded Iraq because Saddam had WMD's
Edited on Wed Oct-27-04 03:00 PM by DoYouEverWonder
Yet we failed to secure the two main sites, where these programs supposedly were being operated out of? However, Rumsfeld made sure to send in Special Ops to guard the oil fields before we invaded.

10. He looked really bad a few minutes ago on CNN
When told about the falling of Bush's poll numbers among evengelicals. A Pew polls done yesterday showed Bush's support among them down to 70 percent down from the same Pew poll three weeks ago with Bush at 74 percent, nad way down from 2000 where he support was at 80-90 percent.

If this is true, Bush is in trouble.
If you add up Bush's losses, among Muslims he had 80 percent suppport of the roughly 7 million Muslims in the country, and now 80 percent of Muslims support Kerry as a result ofthe effect the Patriot Act had on them. THis alone is a loss for Bush of almost 3 million voters.

Bush's support among Latinos throught the country is down even though he has some increase in support in the Southwest. Overall the national Hispanic Poll placed support by Cubanf fo Bush down from 83 percent in 2000 to 66 percent.

It is claimed that Bush's support among blakcs has doubled, from 9 to 18 percent, but the majority of these polls are similar to the Gallop poll, oversampling republicans. THis would greatly effect the apparant support for Bush, but even if it was correct, the losses among evangelicals and Muslims would have a large offsetting effect.
