Very conservative rural white people with no knowledge of the outside world, many of them right-wing Christians, distrusting city folks, with nobody but Rush Limbaugh to tell them what's going on, and him demonizing liberals every day. Plus, Bush is an oilman, pseudo-rancher and knows how to wave the flag and pose with the military.
He seems like one of them even though he really isn't.

In reality Bush's policies aren't very good for many of these heartland white folks, but they associate him with God and country and Kerry isn't going to bother to campaign in those hardline red states at all.

Bush's big achilles heel now is that the industrial midwest is pretty turned off with him. In those swing-voter focus groups from Ohio you see on TV, you see many who have just become fed up and will never trust Bush again.

Also Dems have never been so united and so deteremined to replace Bush, and Kerry-Edwards is a damn fine ticket. Kerry and Edwards are both fighters, winners and closers. That's why I don't think Bush can win unless something very strange happens.
