The Bush Factor?

Edited on Tue Nov-08-05 11:38 PM by journalist3072

"Most voters said President Bush was not a factor in their choices Tuesday, according to the survey conducted Tuesday by the AP and its polling partner, Ipsos. Of the 20 percent who said they voted in part to show opposition to the president, the most disaffected were young voters, women, blacks and low-income voters. The president's job approval among New Jersey voters was 35 percent, slightly lower than an AP-Ipsos national poll last week."

1. I don't think it's as much a Bush thing as a Pub thing.

There have been so many accusations, indictments, and convictions of Pubs nationwide, I think people are simply disgusted with the whole Party!

2. My only question is...

What took them so long to get disgusted?

There are those of us who have been disgusted from Day 1.

3. It's called a snow job! Shrub convinced lots of people that he

was the best able to handle Iraq, the "war on terror", and still that damn comassionate conservative thing. They also though he was a Pub, but the way he spent $$, he failed on that one too!!!!

4. Fingers crossed... this is

the beginning of the end of
the right wing movement.
Centrist republicans will
either take their party back
or become democrats.
(and if that's you... welcome !!)
