the fact that Bush can't even muster a solid lead in the polls vs Kerry at this point in time, after Bush spent the entire last 4 years essentially buying his re-election with pork from the treasury, is a telling sign.

You saw the Kentucky interim congressional vote didn't you? THe republican lost in a landslide, even though
- democrats haven't won an interim KY seat since 92
- Bush and Hastert campaigned hard for the republican candidate
- the dem candidate who won, just LOST the governors race a few mos ago- usually people don't want to vote for a recent loser
- polls said the race "would be close", it was actually a huge voter turnout and not close at all.

Is this a canary in a coal mine? I think so.
