I think yes as it is and if they catch ubl or find wmd's in iraq then it'll be a rout. Especially if the economy keeps growing and starts adding more jobs. If that doesn't happen he might have to have one of the other two happen to win. Putting un inspectors back in North Korea with a broad mission and unfettered access would go a long way to making me feel safer and I think help his reelection chances as well.

I believe GWB will be re-elected also because the Dems. can't seem to get behind any single candidate that can compete. I certainly do not think Hillary is the answe!

Dubya will for sure get my vote. Now that Saddam is captured, there is no telling what we will find. Unless another attack happens, his chances can only get better from the way I see it.

yea wow, bush actually got something done that he was supposed to. Who would have thought? Never mind the unemployement or the record deficit or our troops dying because bush supposedly cares about the Iraqi people. Never mind that Iraq didnt have anything to do with 9/11 or that bush and his people are tricking citizens into backing him so things can get better for him and his rich buddies, and worse for everybody else whether they know it or not. Who really cares about all that because the point is is that Saddam was captured. I feel so much safer now, he was such a imminent threat to us. At least the Iraqi people are liberated now though, even though they cant figure out whether they are thankful or mad at us. But since saddam was captured i have to say good job bush, or actually good job US Soldiers because they are the ones actually getting things done in Iraq. Also, people that dont like higher taxes need to look into the future and be ready not to complain when this deficit has to be paid for. No matter how far bush drives this country into the ground, at the end hes still going to be rich just like the rest of his buddies while hardworking Americans are going to be paying through the *** for his irresponsibility. let the truth be told, bush dosent give a crap about you or me so why vote for him, screw democrat or republican or liberal and conservative, people should vote for who is going to do the most for the people of this country and so far bush hasnt done much. I do have to say that the world is a better place with saddam captured and I definately support US Troops to the fullest. I love the USA, thats why I wont vote for bush. Alright, good to get all that off my chest.

Unless the Dems can come up with someone better than what they're showing, IMO, it'll be Bush all the way.

It takes more than just the president to incur that kind of spending, and I'm talking about both sides of the isle too.

I agree with you super. Our federal government has been growing faster than our ability to support it and all it's programs. No one can say no to anything because everyone is trying to get re-elected.

gwb

I think gwb has a good cance of getting reelected unless he has any misfortunes between now and nov .he's walking a thin line . he was elected by electral vote not popular vote.if gore could give him a run for his money,any thing is possible. The dem. dont have the answer yet,but if they could speak with one voice they would have a better chance. This deficit thing is going to hurt us if either party doesn't adress it soon.I recall a balanced budget not to long ago . What happened there?What are we doing about korea?what about welfare reform?What about tax reform? We need answers to these and a lot more.We need answers not lip service.Dem and Rep both.

If the only contender that the Dems can come up with is Dean then it`ll be Bush in `04. I may be broke because of him but I think its about time we addressed the foriegn policy stagnation left behind by our past (dem) president. I think stirring the global pot has done a lot of good so far. I`m going to give him another shot at it my self. And who knows. He might even take some time out of his foriegn policy endevers to remember how he got elected in the first place.

Funny, I bet all you guys work for a living- probably work hard for a living- Yet you all except one are lining up to support a president who has done nothing but hurt the working class. I know, some of you may care a whole lot for your guns should the king of england want in your home, but just how do you suppose we are going to pay the cost of playing cowboy in Iraq? I am in awe of what our troups have been through- but do I want any of them to die for that dust bowl? Hell no! How many hijackers came from Iraq? Answer:0 How many weapons of mass destruction have been found in Iraq? Answer:0. Now I am not saying the other party is the answer- But I damn sure am saying that you guys who are in a hurry to elect Bush II would be well served to consider on who's back his deficit is going to fall.

It has taken too much money and resources to defeat a stone age army led by Clowns. The whole concept of Shock and Awe is ludicrous. The only people Awed by it were in the White House etc. This kind of stuff has been going on in the Middle East since early Medieval times... and its still a mess. Let THEM rebuild it.

This is just my opinion.....

I think that Bush has done a less than average job on his conquest of Iraq and Afghanistan.....I see what the reasons were for going into afghanistan and I would have sent troops there as well.....I also see why he sent troops to Iraq....now that our troops are there I would send an overwhelming force....to secure it and finish the job. This will be a sticking point regardless of Hussein being captured.....the insurgents can still hit and run at will.

Bush's tax break affect more high income than it did middle class.....and this did improve things for now.....I consider it a bandaid....just in time for re election.

If Bush does nothing to stop the flow of jobs from our country, he will be in big trouble....this will make the benefit from the tax break even more temporary. These are the jobs that never come back ....

Bush also needs to impliment federal law on our southern border, secure it and institue the brazero guest worker program....it is a fact that we benefit from the labor that comes here from south of our border.

Bush also needs to secure our northern border with Canada....and create a mututal immigration agreement....kind of like the mutual defense agreement worked up under Norad.

Bush also needs to crack down on the corporate crimes and make them accountable.....funny how a petty thieve will get 6 months on jail and these crooks who stole a lifetime of savings get nothing....to date only 2 people ar imprisoned!!!! of the dozens of crooks!!

Bush should also re evaluate the confilcts of interest within
his admin.....the Haliburton connection is a can of worms that should be taken care of quickly...

I do believe that Dean will give him a run for his money.....

As far as the gun grabbing....i still have my guns....and I vote dems most of the time...i don;t discount Reps that have done a great job...

Most of all don't vote blindly!!!!
know who and what you are voting for!!!!
