WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Below is a statement from Senator John Kerry on President Bush's address tonight on the devastation of Hurricane Katrina:

"Leadership isn't a speech or a toll-free number. Leadership is getting the job done. No American doubts that New Orleans will rise again, they doubt the competence and commitment of this Administration. Weeks after Katrina, Americans want an end to politics-as-usual that leaves them dangerously and unforgivably unprepared. Americans want to know that their government will be there when it counts with leadership that keeps them safe, not speeches in the aftermath to explain away the inexcusable."

<<...That Bush is ignorant and incompetent is not news. What we see of him at his best is the product of careful handling and manipulation, and at his worst, it's when the dog got off the leash for a few moments. What we have to ask ourselves is why are we surprised?...>>

Carter's presidency is probably ancient history for purposes of this poll. Few people vividly recall the details of his tenure. Carter is probably now most familiar to the majority of Americans for his post-presidential activities.

You have been repeatedly saying that Kerry would beat GWB by twenty points if the election were held today. Apparently not. The American people are too smart. Kerry is a mere historical footnote who can safely retain his Senate seat for as long as he wants.

I find it very interesting that Clinton would beat GWB by only two points. The fact that Reagan would beat GWB by thirty-nine points suggests that the American people remain very conservative.
