Just one more step to go and Bush is on political life support..........
Dems are standing right now (emphasize NOW) at the juncture that could mean the end of Bush or the allowing him to crawl back out of his hole. When his numbers got into the 50th percentile on several polls, the media FINALLY began to do some attacking, airing pieces bad for Bush, letting Dems speak without interruptions, etc. And the result was he went even lower---with the shockeroo being the 45% of Zogby---I hear that repuke politicos were shocked and scared. Well, now is the opportunity to the final step.

The Dems need to all out keep screaming over anything and everything he is doing to just get a few more polls down into the 40's!! Once that takes place, repukes will start desserting and distancing themselves from the scumbag and his administration. Those in super pro Bush states will stay awhile, but in the "iffy" areas, they are going to start to slam, not cooperate and not want to be associated with him. And what's the effect of that??---his numbers will then drop totally out of sight. We need just a few more steps and we will start seeing the fleeing. If we can get over that final step, his numbers will be so bad at primary time, that the focus of the nation will be on the Dem message. We are the critical time RIGHT NOW--we cannot let the bastard climb out of the hole, again. And if there is an unfortunate attack, accident, etc. of any kind, this time people better start screaming "murder" (as they should have done several times in the past)!!

4. I'll put flowers on his grave
Gleefully, joyfully, yes I'd do that! I'd be that lady in Texas with the silly spray stuff. (NO disrespect to the memory of those boys intended)

6. yes, but CNN is doing their whoring
for the whistleass...

CNN ran a story on how the whistleass's numbers are dropping, Judi Woodruff ended the story by saying "...but we must remember polls are only a moment's snapshot...."

funny she didn't say that when the whistleass's numbers were higher

7. that FCC veto he's
threatening might just do him in.

The Senate says it has the 2/3 to over-rule his veto. I say, bring it on *Bush!

10. Chimp is a coward.
Hasn't vetoed one thing yet. And he won't veto this. His party is running away from him. Witness the cracks from the OT vote.

8. Bush is in trouble
economically and in Iraq. Unlike Poppy, this war is increasingly hard for the administration to put a positive spin on.

11. Folks, we need to keep writing letters to the Editors of our local papers
Now more than ever.

To be honest, I can't remember the last time the Wilmington News-Journal had a day of Letters to the Editor that didn't include at least one commenting on how horrible of a job Bush is doing, Bush's lies, and how we need to bring our troops home from Iraq.

We cannot stop now. We got 45%, lets NOT let that number go up!

14. Good point
Follow through is the key. We can't just stand and wait for this administration of thieves to collapse, let's actively work for its dismantling! Letters to the editor, calls to radio shows, talk to your friends and relatives, keep up the pressure and let's finish the job, now that we're finally seeing some results!

13. The 9/11 movie, the Sunday speech, the grieving ceremonies...
these were all timed and calculated to provide him another boost in the polls, and ALL OF THEM have fallen miserably flat--even backfired, to a certain extent.

The people that were scared into supporting him are not scared anymore. We're losing our money and our futures, and that's really all that matters. Not even another terrorist attack or war can save him; he's just finished.
