Vic sent me this email which ought to hammer in the last nail in John Kerry’s presidential ambitions.
President Bush has seized on this as the salvation of his campaign to retain control of Congress. He’s been concentrating on the few locations where enthusiastic crowds can still be put together in congressional districts where the incumbents are brave enough to have Bush come in and stump for them.
I can’t help but think that the images of enthusiastic Bush supporters on the news will only cause Democrats to redouble their efforts to get their people to the polls next Tuesday. Furthermore, Bush’s recent promise to keep Rumsfeld on until the end of his term of office can only cause more doubts among voters who think the Administration is incapable rethinking solutions to its problems in Iraq.
