quarter of a billion dollars
in the war chest for bush. that is just obscene. i would think that alone would have people bothered and he would lose.

just in the campaign reform, the deficit, lost of jobs, people hurting, corporation donations. i would think people would be turned off, not be proud of this

2. The "absentee president"
I loved Al Pacino's monologue in "The Devil's Advocate".

"And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fuckin' ass off. He's a tight-ass. He's a sadist. He's an absentee landlord. Worship that? Never. "
-Al Pacino

I always felt that way about Dubya.

3. Funny, the figures I see now are only 100 million
The figure keeps shrinking...I wonder if he's now being perceived as a loser and the donations are starting to dry up...They are no longer predicting he'll have 200 mil...
