RNC Preview John LeBoutillier Monday, Aug. 30, 2004 Well, it finally begins today and already we can see a few things developing: 1. Anti-GOP protesters behaved better than expected yesterday as they marauded through midtown New York City. The expected violence was confined to a few cases; just over 200 protesters were arrested. Story Continues Below Clearly the Kerry camp and the Democrats got to the march leaders and told them to “cool it” or risk a pro-Bush, Chicago 1968-style backlash. 2. In the carefully orchestrated lead-up to the convention, the Bush Campaign is trying to refocus the race on the War on Terror. Why? Because it is the only area in polling data in which President Bush leads John Kerry. When the race is focused on the War in Iraq or the economy or health care (a huge ‘sleeper’ issue), Kerry wins substantially. Thus this week’s focus is going to be on the War on Terror. 3. Conventions have no suspense anymore. They are now well-crafted and scripted-down-to-the-letter infomercials out to sell one party or the other. The widespread rumor that Vice President Cheney will announce that, for health reasons, he is stepping down and the convention then picks John McCain is simply not going to happen. Cheney looks great, is full of vigor and has no reason to step down. Period! 4. Predictions: The convention will go well. No surprises. ‘Ahnold’ will get lots of positive media attention. So will McCain. Amazing, really. Two guys who are not really for Bush are going to dominate the Bush re-election campaign. And then Friday morning at 8:30 a.m. the new unemployment stats come out. With the boggy economy - now confirmed by sluggish second-quarter data - back in the news, Team Bush will be off and running and trying to keep the focus on the War on Terror. Kerry will hit the road talking up jobs, outsourcing and health care. It’s going to be a wild two months.
