Bush's numbers go up when he's out of the media spotlight.

I think I read that Bush's numbers go up when he's out of the spotlight, but go down when he is visible in the media.

That's one of the reasons that he stays away from Press Conferences and big speeches unless he absolutely has to (plus he is likely to fuck something up).

Anyway, my suspicion is that the GOP is going to try to run Bush's campaign largely without him in the spotlight. He won't be seen much at all.

But still, Bush *will* have to be more visible in the upcoming months in order to compete against Kerry than he has been in the last 3 years, and that will be good for Kerry.

2. That's so funny!

Who can doubt this? I used to hate it when his miserable voice came on the radio. My trembling hand used to reach out and get rid of him quick. My anger level would go from 1-100 in a matter of seconds.

Now? I kinda enjoy listening to that fool....now, the stammering, stuttering and uh -- ah----, see--- uh-- they hate our freedom.

The corners of my mouth curl slowly upward. A bigger smile breaks out. I'm giggling now. Fool. How could they be so stupid that they would pick him as their spokesman.

4. I agree...We've been seeing less and less of him this year

They'll probably try to spin it as: " The president has been very busy fighting terrorists"

6. The bruises haven't disappeared

from falling off his new bike. Probably a greenish-yellow shade by now. With scabs.
