Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[goodluck]

<<I sure as heck don't sense a 66% approval rating of Bush when I'm out and about where people speak their mind.>>
Neither do I. In fact, just the opposite. But perhaps it is just that the country is becoming so polarized that people pro and con can't even talk or listen to each other any more. If true, that bodes ill for the future. And Bush claimed to be the guy who could work with people, the "compassionate" conservative who could bring people together, working by creating consensus, not promoting a "class war". The people who I speak with who are supporters of Bush emphasize the security issue--"they" are gonna get us if we aren't proactive. Bush has 'em scared silly.
