48. Right, but shouldn't that mean that Kerry's good to go?
I mean it's not going to get too much worse for Bush than this - and if Kerry can't beat him in a poll now, what makes us think he can beat him in 5 months when the economy is on the mend and things in Iraq are looking up.

I'm not saying that those things *are* going to happen, but they may, and we *may* have the appearance of them without the actual events. The press may choose to cover something else. The job numbers may be artificially inflated. The Saudis may come to George Jr's rescue on oil prices.

I mean these last two months have been HORRIBLE for George Jr.

Plus I'm not so convinced on the $ issue anymore. I think Kerry has a lot of potential to match Bush. I'm astounded as to what's been raised in such a short time. People like me who have NEVER given political donations before George Jr. took the reigns are now opening our pocketbooks. Dean's Machine got money to pour in from small donors. MoveOn is making big buys and doing the dirty work.

Plus I want the Senate back this time too, if not the House. Having all 3 branches of government held by one power has proven to be too dangerous to our Republic.

I'm just getting very nervous, I guess...
