Amazing how the nationwide trend of voting Republican or Democrat for President is still pretty much 50-50. You're right, you have to look at it on a state by state basis. Funny about the "Dems handling domestic affairs better" - I think Bush is going too far overboard with the new spending programs like drugs for seniors with no means testing but OTOH the Democrats would likely go WAY too far overboard. BTW, do you think Nader will stick his oar in?

michael, You sound like a fatalist. Upsets happen...especially when middle-class Americans realize they have been sold out by Bush Adm for benefit of his largest campaign contributors--multi-national corporations(who have loyalty to nothing but their craving for global monopolies). American voters do not focus on presidental campaigns until the event is just few mos away. We need someone with ability to clearly present GW's dismal domestic performance to voters--Howard Dean will learn from Iowa & return to fight again(much like U.S. military's initial entry into Iraq). Their early stumbles were quickly corrected & they moved on to victory. If only their commander in chief had best interests of average Americans at heart in same fashion as our wonderful fighting men & women.
