For a year and a half now, I've been telling people that the biggest disaster, politically, that the Repukes have made in recent history was getting involved in the whole Schiavo mess. What was meant a pathetic little nod/"thank you" to the religious right ended up becoming a national freak show and in the process, alienated a LOT of people -- Democrats AND Republicans. America was shown on a national stage just how far over the line some of these freaks are willing to go (and of course, some of the fundie nuts were upset with the Repukes for not doing enough because they didn't "save" her). After that fiasco was when Georgie's numbers seemed to start dropping consistently and dramatically.
