It's all about Bush, 9/11, terror and the economy. How has Bush performed I'll take that debate. Economy: The Nasdaq dropped 50% in the year before GW took office and the economy was beginning to crumble. The NAS has risen 50% since he took office and we are well on our way to recovery. Terror and 9/11: We had some 8 unanswered terrorist attacks in the 8 years prior to GW. We have had one answered attack and no more under GW. Bush: Why do find it OK to talk about Bush but not Kerry and his backers?

"It's old time Chicago politics, shoe leather on the pavement, driving reluctant voters to the polls. It's grass roots local, it's real politics. Which in a strange way is sort of refreshing. The folks that want it most will probably win" stuffing ballot boxes, paying street people to vote , paying off leaders in neighborhoods to get people out to vote. some will be paid in cigs.. some $5/10 each vote. and the dead will come back to vote. ps/ also some missing ballot boxes. I wonder if it is enough to make a difference in any election. g
