No matter how ya slice it, Bush is toast. |
Gallup, Pew, the American Research Group, Zogby and others had some
devastating new poll results for the Chimp in Charge last week - not
that you'd know it from the newsroom spin.
The Media Whores are still desperately stuck trying to paint the race
as a neck-and-neck nailbiter and John Kerry as a boring candidate
who's going nowhere.
Unfortunately for Bush, the evidence suggests that if he doesn't do
something to stop his ratings slide, he could be screwed.
According to Gallup, "no incumbent president in the post-war era won
re-election after falling below 50 percent approval at this point in
an election year."
(Bush is currently at 44%.)
In addition, every incumbent who has won re-election has had a
double-digit lead over their opponent at this stage in the campaign.
That's right - John Kerry is 11 points stronger against George W. Bush
at this point than Bill Clinton was against Bush's father in 1992.
Heard about that on Fox News lately?
Nope - but you may have heard the Media Whores spreading stories about
Democrats wanting to ditch Kerry.
After all, when the party's nominee is doing better than any
challenger in recent memory, it's always a good idea to, uh, get rid
of him and find someone else.
At least, the Republicans would certainly appreciate it if that could
be arranged.
