[B]Whether or not Bush will win is dependant upon a number of things. The War in Iraq was a waste, there were no weapons found and that is going to hurt come election time. Second and most important to most Americans, the President has lost major support because of the state of the economy. He still has high approval ratings but various other polls show American dissatisfaction in regards to the economy, and other issues of importance (education, etc.). Bush dosen't "take care of home" and Americans want a more stable country. If the economy improves then there is a strong chance he can win.

Also of importance is who the Democratic Party selects as their candidate. Last election all the candidates were middle of the road and that is what hurt Democrats the most. As a matter of fact Bush took a stand on alot of things (although he was also middle of the road on some issues), they were all against minorities but he took a stand. This election the Democrats need someone who is a strong leader and is willing to take a stand on the important issues (economy, education, security etc.).


****hand clapping***** Yes! You are so right! You know I would love to see Bush go toe to toe with Al Sharpton.lollol
I like the guy from Vermont---Governor Dean... He seems to take a firm stand on issues regarding healthcare, education, and even gay rights. I thought he was pretty articulate... But it is pretty aparent that the American public needs a GOOD, SENSIBLE,INTELLIGIBLE candidate NOW!!!I am SURE that any candidate would be better than Bush. Hey, maybe Sharpton will go to the White House and aptly rename it the Black House. lol
