5/12/2004Kerry stronger than Clinton
Kos notes just how good things are looking for us in the polls. At this juncture, Kerry is 11 points ahead of where Clinton was at this stage in the 92 race, and not only did Clinton go on to win, Bush 1 didn't have the handicap of shooting himself in the foot on a near daily basis.

Mark Mellman also goes on to note something a lot of us are guilty of forgetting: Indeed, in most races involving incumbents the critical number is not the margin over the challenger but rather the percentage of the vote the incumbent is garnering. As sophisticated poll-watchers know, few incumbents get more votes on Election Day than they do in the last polls. Voters who are undecided at the end break overwhelmingly to the challenger. So we're sitting pretty folks, and have nowhere to go but up. Bush's support however, has hit the ceiling. At this rate, it could be a landslide, with the pace of Bush/Bush team mistake, Kerry rebuttal. This positions Kerry, albeit in a piecemeal fashion, to set himself up to be the viable alternative to the chaotic course this country is headed in. That puzzle will complete itself in the American voters' eyes as time goes on. We have never been in a better position to win this, and win it big. We're talking setting the republican party back another decade big. Have you juiced John Kerry yet this week? If you can afford anything, this is a good time to do so. We've gone on to prove that any little bit helps, and well folks, we're winning. ArchivesMarch 2004 April 2004 May 2004 February 2008 March 2008 Technorati Profile |
