WOW! Read this GREAT paragraph in the WaPo

[pabloseb]

"But despite the insistence that all was well, the erosion in the moods of Bush's inner circle over the past two weeks was unmistakable. Several of his close advisers said they were concerned because the president had achieved no last-minute momentum, and Democratic turnout was looking as if it might swamp the Bush-Cheney campaign's projections. "

This is buried in this article: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A17111-2004Nov1.html

3. "Jubilation" on the Bush Campaign Plane

From the same WaPo article:

Mark McKinnon, Bush's chief ad strategist, flew with him all day and said Bush was "nostalgic" about having so much of his team from 2000 out on the road with him one last time. Asked the mood on the plane, a subdued McKinnon replied, in deadpan voice: "Jubilation."

7. Turn out, turn out, turn out

If everyone of you mo'fo's reading this thread isn't personably responsible for at least one more additional Kerry voter getting to the polls, you have failed!

9. They also mention poor internal polling

From the WP article:

A GOP official who is privy to Bush-Cheney strategy and polling said that as the incumbent, Bush should be further ahead of Kerry in polls. "Some of them have been moving in the right direction, but it isn't enough," the official said. "Karl is a big believer in the bandwagon effect, but there has been nothing over the past week for the president to use it to turn it around."

8. Please let it be so

I've gotten that sense as an outside observer. It's nice to hear it confirmed from people close to the campaign.

And now ... TURNOUT TURNOUT TURNOUT {landslide} TURNOUT TURNOUT TURNOUT {landslide}
