We are way better off than we were in 2000 at this point!

[West Coast Democrat]

- Kerry is ahead in several polls (Gore was behind in every poll at this point) and very close in the rest

- Most of our base is really pumped to go to the polls this time--most everyone agrees that Kerry is a better candidate than Gore, and in addition, everyone despises Bush*

- Bush's approval numbers are below 50% in nearly every poll

- Kerry's campaign is handling the dirty tricks very well, and has overall been a better campaign

I could go on and on...but it's looking very good for us (knock on wood)!

1. I don't think the repukes realized how PO'd the electorate would be

after 2000. Figured we would all go back to sleep like good little drones, not spend 4 years planning our revenge.

2. Well, he is a uniter...

Who knew he would do such a great job at uniting the opposition?

3. And Kerry is competitve in a number of red states

that Gore wrote off in 2000 - Ohio, New Hampshire and Arkansas, to name a few.
