<<What specifically about a second Bush term would cause class warfare to erupt?>>

Home foreclosures, the new bankruptcy law throwing debtors in prison, and skyrocketing unemployment. Not that the Demorats would do any better, but Bush has been there 4 years already, so he and his admin are the ones who gets "Hoovered". There's a rising perception that the administration has a credibility problem....WMD, the PPI release, and all the jobs blather. Nonetheless, the power of the incumbency may be enough to get him through the election, but there are a lot of shoes lining up to drop afterwards (interest rates being only the most prominent). I don't think there's a chance in hell that we escape a recession in 2005, and that certainly would be enough to trigger it.
