An early peek of the latest Time poll:
- 41% of Americans approve of President Bush
- 53% of Americans disapprove of President Bush
- 76% of those who disapprove say they are unlikely to change their minds in the future
- If last year's election were held today, Kerry would win, but only by one point (48% to 47%)
It's hard to believe that Kerry still would only beat Bush by one point (or perhaps not at all) given the President's sinking approval rating. This is further evidence of what a horrible candidate Kerry was. It was as if the Democrats wanted to lose in 2004. But I think Kerry's numbers would be higher if he were actually campaigning and back in the national spotlight. Many voters, Democrats in particular, are upset with Kerry for handing Bush another four years. At the time of the election, after hearing the debates and speeches, I was convinced that Kerry would actually make a decent president. But after the agony of election night Kerry became tainted, a symbol of another Democratic defeat and another four years of Bush.

Having just seen John Edwards at Trinity, I'm convinced that if he had been the Dem's pick in 2004 he would have won. He's much more charismatic than Kerry (of course just about any one is) and has a lot more energy.

John Edwards was at Trinity? I really need to read that commie-rag newspaper once in a while to see what's going on.
