Black Thursday For Bush
From The Washington Post:

If President Bush is not reelected, we may look back on last Thursday, July 10, 2003, as the day the shadow of defeat first crossed his political horizon. To be sure, Bush looks strong. The CBS News poll released that evening had his approval rating at 60 percent, with solid support from his own party, a 26-point lead among independents and a near-even split among Democrats. Two-thirds of those surveyed could not name a single one of the nine Democrats vying for the right to oppose him.

But "The CBS Evening News" that night was like Karl Rove's worst nightmare, and the other network newscasts -- still the main source of information for a large number of Americans -- were not much better.

I was giggling and clapping like a schoolgirl through the whole article. I hate for things to be in so sorry a state, but I would love to see Dubya get his comeuppance.

3. hey folks, rate that story a 5!!!
Highest rated stories are advertised more, and this one looks like it's being freeped (has a 3.3 rating out of 5). Go rate it. I want the world to see this one! :bounce:
