5. The bloom has fallen off the rose no question. |

You no longer hear stories about how bush is the kind of guy you'd like to have a beer with. Nobody seems amused by his cute habit of nicknamiing people or his faux-folksy phrases. The media seems bored or unimpressed by his piety. You do hear almost about rove/libby. delay, frist, miers, iraq clusterfuck, high energy prices etc. And the polls indicate it has sunk in. There is nothing they can do to win back the hearts and minds of the public so all they have left is to scare the shit out of us. And I think a lot of people are wise to the fake terralerts as well (the NY subway story was almost immeidately suspect). The citizens would be advancing on Washington with pitchforks if the dems had even a scintilla of a strategy to use all these stories to their advantage.
