What's Scaring Bush In These Swing States
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/bw/20040908/bs_bw/b3899042mz011&e=4

Even before the balloons and confetti rained down on the GOP faithful in Madison Square Garden, the Bush campaign was claiming victory, after a fashion. With several polls showing that the President had erased Democrat John Kerry (news - web sites)'s small lead, the President's supporters declared that the dynamic in the race now favored George W., not a rival who had spent much of August in a defensive crouch. "We're where I thought we'd be on the day after Labor Day," says chief Bush strategist Matthew Dowd.

They are even or behind Kerry on Labor day and this is good news???

1. The Labor Day benchmark has been skewed by the late convention date
