Poll question: What does Dick and Bush have in mind for an
Edited on Mon May-10-04 12:57 PM by robertpaulsen
Bush/Cheney '04 stock is going down the toilet. With multiple investigations probing scandals surrounding their "leadership" and with Kerry's ad campaign kicking it up in anticipation of a VP selection and the Democratic Convention in Boston, I look for Kerry to take a commanding lead this summer.

But with his near $200 million warchest focused on reSelection, Dick and Bush have to have more than Diebold as a trick up their sleeves. They've got to keep the race close for a "victory" to seem convincing.

So, what do you think they have planned as an "October Surprise" to try to turn the tide of public opinion in their favor?

Definitions for those still wondering:

LIHOP: Let It Happen On Purpose

MIHOP: Made It Happen On Purpose

Today I am feeling hopeless and depressed so it wouldn't suprise me at all. The Republican Congress needs to step up and get rid of these fools-But --Like that would happen--
