GOP polling memo: fabmac.com Conclusion Clearly, if these undecided voters were leaning any harder against the door of the Kerry camp, they would crash right through it. The Bush campaign needs to focus on two goals with these crucial voters – improve their perceptions about the jobs and economy AND more sharply and aggressively define John Kerry. Any advertising that does not either sharply define Kerry or get the truth out about the growing economy appears to be a waste of resources in this environment, an environment in which the President's image is polarized and generally fixed. If the Bush team can improve these voters’ perceptions of the jobs and the economy, it would improve the President’s job approval and image ratings. Couple that improvement with a worsening in their view of Kerry and the President can greatly improve his chances of capturing these voters. Short of accomplishing these two goals or some other significant event, these voters appear poised to break heavily AGAINST President Bush in John Kerry’s favor which would hand Kerry a lion’s share of these states.

redfish. You said...." It's readily apparent where the country is headed, but there is nothing to be done about it ... the republicans set the wheels in motion. If it ends in civil war, that's fine with me. Maybe after a few years of getting pounded to dust the republicans will see the error of their ways and agree to start playing fair again ... if not, to hell with them all. "...... Not trying to be a smart ass here but again you present a very good example of what I'm talking about. If democracy in America should end up in civil war why should or would any other countries try democracy for the first time? You said..." It's readily apparent where the country is headed, but there is nothing to be done about it"..... I disagree, IMO the citizens of America can do something about it. What will you do or think if kerry should lose the election? Will you accept gracefully and realize the change is needed within the party you support.
