I felt Bush ran a Good vs Evil campaign that appealed to most Americans esp. in a wartime election. Kerry ran a good campaign but still wasn't clear enough as to really how he was 1) different from Bush 2)how he was going to make things better.
As for the thread topic-I have seen a few "Why should we listen to you losers" type posts and thats the problem with the Bush Govn at this time. They have sharply divided the country with their mudslinging, negative campaigning in not only the Presidential race but also nearly all GOP races. Now its their problem to actually do something instead of blaming everyone else or this will be the end of the GOP run. The GOP has major issues ie: Iraq, the economy, heath care, SS, that they must make good on their promises or people will be looking for a different solution in 4 years. The GOP only won by 2% which is not a landslide nor mandate, in fact thats a barely squeaking by victory for an incumbent.
The Dems must oust the Clintons stranglehold on the party cuz there is no way H.Clinton is going to be elected as President nor any other left leaning liberals.
McCain- great choice as the Dems will beat him hands down as he has as much personality as a piece of wood
Arnold- if he can run, another great choice as he is too liberal for the GOP right
Rudy- might make it
