Poll: Dems expect Bush to be re-elected |

Poll: Dems expect Bush to be re-elected
69% of voters surveyed consider 2nd term for president likely
Despite one Democratic rival's call for his impeachment over the State of
the Union uranium flap, more than two-thirds of voters expect President
George W. Bush to be re-elected, according to a new nationwide poll.
Of the 504 likely Democratic and Independent primary voters surveyed July
16-17 by Zogby International, 69 percent said it is likely that Bush will
stay in the White House for a second term, regardless of how they plan to
vote. That's up from 56 percent in March.
President George W. Bush
A plurality, or 48 percent, said they dislike the president as a person,
compared to 38 percent who said they like him. Fourteen percent were not
sure.
Among the Democratic presidential hopefuls, three shared the lead: Missouri
Rep. Richard Gephardt, former Vermont Gov. Dr. Howard Dean, and Connecticut
Sen. Joseph Lieberman each polled 12 percent.
In comparison with a March poll, Lieberman dropped from 18 percent, Gephardt
gained 1 percentage point and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry remained steady
at 9 percent. Dean gained the most ground, jumping from 4 percent.
The margin of error for both polls is +/- 4.4 percent.
Among other announced Democratic contenders, civil rights activist Rev. Al
Sharpton polled 4 percent, North Carolina Sen. John Edwards polled 3
percent, former Illinois Sen. Carol Mosley Braun and Ohio Rep. Dennis
Kucinich both polled 2 percent, and Florida Senator Bob Graham earned 1
percent of the votes.
The poll found widespread disatisfaction with the Democratic field. Nearly
half, or 48 percent of respondents, said they wish other candidates were
running, while 41 percent said they were satisfied.
"The Democrats still do not have a national candidate. Regional candidates
continue to do well in Iowa and New Hampshire, but none have yet been able
to capture the nation's imagination," commented pollster John Zogby.
Zogby's findings come on the heels of those by former Clinton pollster Mark
Penn who concluded the Democratic Party is at its weakest position since the
New Deal.
Penn found that while the Party still boasts solid support among its core
constituency - union members, minorities and the working poor - and has
successfully brought homosexuals and Hispanics into the fold, fewer than
one-third of Americans now consider themselves Democrats.
That compares to a peak of 49 percent of Americans in 1958.
In terms of probable platform issues, 66 percent think the Democratic Party
should nominate a candidate who stands up for his or her beliefs, while 30
percent prefer a candidate who can defeat the president.
The Zogby poll offers an indication of which issues will garner votes. More
than half, or 52 percent of respondents, said they don't favor a candidate
who supports "gay" marriage, while 35 percent said they would vote for a
candidate who supports the concept. A plurality, or 42 percent, said they
would back a candidate who supported the war in Iraq, while 37 percent feel
their candidate should be someone who opposed the war.
In a hastily scheduled press conference this morning, Bush indicated his
focus heading into the election season will be "the safety and economic
security of the American people." On national defense, he touted the
progress of coalition forces in Iraq and the intelligence community at
nabbing key al-Qaida leaders and advancing the ongoing war on terror. On the
economy, the president said he was "optimistic about the future" and said he
believed more jobs will be created.
When asked by a reporter to defend his fund-raising activities and
questioned how he planned to spend $170 million on the primary election,
Bush responded, "Just watch."
"I think the American people expect me to seek re-election. They expect me
to do what a candidate needs to do," said Bush.

rights, and the rights of man."

(1801-1809)

Yes.
WND, like Newsmax and Drudge, does not deny their bias, but they are
every bit as legitimate a news source as ABC / CBS / NBC / CNN / PBS /
NPR / NY Times / WA Post / LA Times / Time / Newsweek / Reuters / and
others... who are also obviously biased, but won't admit it.
I'd trust WND for their honesty, any day over most of the mainstream
media.
with the credibility of a Bush.
The answer is also yes. Like President Bush, WND is unassailable by
sanctimonius liberal superiority and their silly, power-mad delusions.
The only way liberals can respond is with personal attacks and lies.

It was a ZOGBY poll.
Don't they have those in the projects???
"We fundamentally disagree with the complaint filed today and will
defend vigorously against it."
- B.J. Clinton, July 1, 2000
I have accepted a five-year suspension of my law license, agreed to pay a $25,000 fine to cover counsel fees, and acknowledged a violation of one of the Arkansas model rules of professional conduct
because of testimony in my Paula Jones case deposition. The disbarment suit will now be dismissed.
In this consent order, I acknowledge having knowingly
violated Judge Wright's discovery orders in my deposition in that case.
I tried to walk a fine line between acting lawfully
and testifying falsely, but I now recognize that I
did not fully accomplish this goal and that certain
of my responses to questions about Ms. Lewinsky were false.
-William Jefferson Clinton.
