1. Kerry and Salazar need to hook up
Salazar appears to be a lock for Campbell's seat.

2. He only had a 6 point lead in Indiana in one poll.
That amazed me. This doesn't amaze me quite as much, but I am encouraged by it.

4. Un-believeable
Ohhhh God I hope they open a Kerry office in Colorado so I can help out. Will definately be working for Salazar though.

5. Salazar may have to
stay away from Kerry if the state is considered heavy conservative

10. It isn't heavily conservative
Bush won the state in 2000 with barely 50% of the vote
Gore had 42%
Nadar had 5+%

6. I keep telling folks that Bush's support is a mile wide and an inch deep.
If we don't blow this one, folks, we COULD pull out a landslide in November.

7. After all of his "triumphs" (9-11, Iraq, THREE tax cuts, et cetera),
the fact that he can't even get 50% support in most polls is very telling.

Bush was better poised to win in 2000 than he is now. He was enjoying a pretty healthy lead over Gore at this point. He's struggling now just to break even.

8. I know MANY Repubs who will not vote for Bush in November.
Edited on Wed Mar-24-04 06:58 PM by Cuban_Liberal
At this point, they may not vote FOR Kerry, but many true fiscally-conservative Republicans have had all they can stand of Bush. I also know many Republican women who have had all of him they can stand. If we can figure out a way to sway a substantial number of these 2 groups to our camp, we could be looking at a blowout victory.

9. The overall electorate has felt it was "time for someone new"
for quite a while.

Wasn't "Unnamed Democrat" beating Bush as early as February of 2003?

11. Yes.

Bush has never really oversome 'buyer's remorse', even though 9-11 and the Iraq War gave him some temporary respite.:)
