A Kerry Landslide?
Why the next election won't be close.
washingtonmonthly.com

ME: I've been thinking this for a few months, but I didn't want to say or write it. We have to assume the election will be close, and work for every vote. We have seen how ugly the Bush smears are already (a cornered rat will fight for his life) and I am sure it will get even worse.

Excerpt:
'As The New Republic's Ryan Lizza argued in a recent New York Times editorial, undecided voters "know [the incumbent] well, and if they were going to vote for him, they would have already decided. Thus support for Mr. Bush should be seen more as a ceiling, while support for Mr. Kerry, the lesser-known challenger, is more like a floor."'

Reminds me of this quote: "There is no group in America that can withstand the force of an aroused public opinion." --President Franklin D. Roosevelt
