Yes, I agree. I believe that Bush has backed himself into a corner; actually, I believe his advisors have backed him into a corner. The neocon dream of control of the Middle East is being realized, but at a tremendous cost. The lack of focus on domestic affairs, and the lack of understanding of the psychological impact of the huge budget deficit, is destroying business confidence and the hope of a job recovery. I saw a program (I think it was on CNBC) where they would have a candidate talk and then have a superimposed graph of 'opinion' from an audience. The graph was broken down into separate lines for men and women. They showed a couple of candidates talking about issues. I caught the part with Howard Dean. It is interesting that, of the part I saw, the approval spiked mightily (about 80% for both men and women) when Dean talked about the importance of eliminating the deficit and getting back to a surplus. I think that this issue really resonants with voters right now; fiscal responsibility and reduction of the deficit is the surest way of restoring bueinss confidence.
