Maybe so...not the point however. The question is not relative to a democratic candidate. I think Americans have gotten the message that this man deceived the nation and mishandled the diplomatic effort quite badly to boot. I think many of them don't trust his intellectual independence....if not his intellect altogether. Your point may speak to their confidence that there is a better choice, and reflects your bias by the way. I happen to think that Lieberman is among the least likely to beat bush. You conveniently ignored the rest of my post incidentally...I guess I can understand that.

That Bush, he sure is lowering in the threat of terrorism. The early return from the "New American Century" are not particularly encouraging.

al-Qaida Global Threat Assessed in Report
1 hour, 25 minutes ago

By BETH GARDINER, Associated Press Writer

LONDON - A report released Tuesday said Osama bin Laden (news - web sites)'s al-Qaida network has been largely dismantled, but the threat posed by extremist Muslim terrorists remains high and has grown harder to track.

The report by the London-based Control Risks Group said the number of countries likely to pose a medium security risk to Western businesses operating in them was 71 for 2004, with 14 countries bumped up from low-risk. The group is a private consultancy that advises companies on security.
