Mr Bush just came out and said what we need are more tax cuts. It is an interesting concept that what the economy needed to get going again was tax cuts for the rich. Were there some tax increases to the rich that put the economy in a tail spin to begin with? It seemed like we were doing just fine, robust economy, budget surplus, and then things went down hill around election time. I'll not blame Clinton, or Bush, but lay it on a normal economic cycle brought on by Greenspan's interest rate hikes. Maybe what Greenspan did was needed considering how the economy was charging along and it was time to get the Dems out of the white house. But, what happened was a normal business cycle. The rich, or anyone else, being over taxed was not a problem or we wouldn't have had such a strong economy for so long under Clinton. No, the recession was just a good excuse to bilk the national treasury for the good of Mr Bush's cronies. bb It's early yet for most Americans to even begin thinking about the national elections. But the possibilities are interesting. We're a little more than a year away, and we have a president who cannot get a grasp on the economy, who has ruined decades of diplomacy, who has ensnarled us in a war with a country that wasn't our enemy, who has taken steps to worsen the environment, erode workers' rights, hand out huge payoffs to the oil and drug industries, who has whittled away the Bill of Rights, and who has made our country the laughing stock of the world. I have no idea who the Democratic nominees will be, but if they are a pair willing to body slam Bush really hard for a year, they may well beat him enough enough to send him back to Crawford, Texas. I like Howard Dean as an orator - he has the fire in his belly - but I don't know if his dog will hunt in the South. Pair him up with Wesley Clark and you'll have a really interesting team that could slaughter the Bu****es on domestic policy, diplomacy, and, of course, running the military properly. Notice how Bush has kind of stopped talking about Iraq and is now trying to "handle" the economy? Pathetic. -- * * * email sent to will *never* get to me. |

Harry is in Dreamland again. Every poll that pairs Bush against any of the
current Democratic contenders gives him a dobule digit lead. The only time Bush is matched evenly, is when he's polled against an anonymous "Democratic candidate". People insert their "dream candidate" into that position, and Bush still splits evenly with the fictional super-Dem. All of this is taking place at a time when, according to Harry, things couldn't be worse for this country. Well, they're only going to get better over the next 14 months...and Bush will win in a landslide. |

She would most likely win the Democratic primary if she got into the race. The fact that she does not is a good indicator of how strong of a lead GWB has right now. |

Hillary is treading water right now, waiting for a time when she thinks she
might actually have a chance. Right now, she thinks 2008 is that time. Of course she wrote off 2004. She knows Bush is unbeatable. He's affable, and that's the main trait in politics that keeps guys in office. I can't wait to see Jeb crush her 2008, though. "Jim" wrote in message news:Cxb6b.272751$cF.84510@rwcrnsc53...

I'll add it to mine. "See-I-told-you-so's" are so much fun.
