White House says Bush targeting Dem voters

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The White House said Monday President Bush is targeting Democrats and undecided voters -- not just the GOP faithful -- on on his final campaign swing on the eve of Election Day.

"This is not simply an effort to talk to Republican voters, but also Democrats and undecideds who might be inclined to agree with the president, especially on the war on terror, but also on the economy," White House Press Secretary Tony Snow told reporters on Air Force One.

Snow also said recent polls indicating the GOP is gaining momentum mirror what he has seen on the ground as the president barnstorms across the country.

"One of the thing's we've seen, there are a lot of people who have been leaning Democrat going into the undecided camp, and people in the undecided camp moving into the Republican camp." Snow said.

That's like lions targeting zebra to help them hunt for a meal.

8. Oooooo.......Bush is so POWERFUL!!
He's such an awesome campaigner that he'll convince Dems to vote for Republicans!! I guess that's why Republican candidates are refusing to appear with him - they don't want to be overshadowed by his massive popularity!! :rofl:

10. Hmmm. That's odd.
What we've been seeing is Republicans getting caught lying about pretty much anything and everything, being arrested/sentenced for illegal activity, participating in inappropriate sexual behavior and hurling lots of bigotry, hatred and foul language indiscriminately. I can see why we would find that appealing. Really. :eyes:

11. Delusional 'til the end.
Actually, if they can steal enough votes, this helps the cover story that * the hero saved the planet from the evil Libs. Yeah, see, he won over the evil Libs with his magnificent charm. And wittiness. And debating skills. And mastery of the English language. And ability to tell the truth while those around him lie. I gotta go now, I'm making myself sick.

15. Well, it's finally been proved: there really IS no brain in there.
He wants to persuade DEMOCRATS? The people whose representatives have literally had the DOORS closed on them in congress?? The people whose representatives have literally been SHUT OUT of Capitol Hill??

The people who are trashed 24/7 by Bush's minions, such as Junkie Rush Limbaugh and Uneducated Sean Hannity?

Georgie, you are finally circling the drain--Jesus be praised!

20. He really is nuts
Even most of the republicons I know who voted for the a-hole can't stand him...little alone Democrats, or Undecideds (Knock knock George they really REALLY hate you!)

If this isn't a deliberate tactic to provide a cover if they cheat, then the man and his handlers are truly stupid.

21. "President Bush is targeting Democrats and undecided voters"
yes he is, with his RNC coordinated robocall harassment intended to discourage likely Democratic voters from turning out. This is a criminal conspiracy directed from and authorized by the highest levels of the Republican Party.

One more crime by the cabal.

Laughable.

He's lost Laura and Barney...He's down to convincing the voice in his head.

And it's not buying.

24. Fucking hilarious
They're getting devastating internals that show that Bush's Revival Tent Sideshow is turning off independents with his slobbering crowds of hard-core devoted lunatics. Hence, this press release.

This is getting yummy.

29. The only thing Dems will move into
are the congressional and senatorial offices. There are a "lot of people" ..."...moving into into the Republican camp." Indeed?! With each new scandal, that's making up their minds for them, Mr. Snowjob? Is that like the famous Faux "some say?" talking trick?

33. Oh, my!!!
I'm a Democrat so I'd better just switch off my television PRONTO lest I be taken in by that smooth charm of our head monkey! I'm afraid he might use that sweet fake Texas charm to talk me into supporting his illegal, immoral war - his looting of the Treasury - his lawbreaking Vice President and Attorney General - his incompetence and cluelessness during and after Katrina - his delusions and various mental illnesses etc.

All I need to see is that GWB swagger, palms back like an ape, and I might break and vote R! Save me dear jeebus!

Bush stumping in blue areas is a great way to turn out the vote. :)

40. I'd be inclined to agree with him if he'd take off all of his clothes, crawl across
1000' of barbwire, say 10,000 hail Mary's and 20,000 Our Fathers, apologize for being born, weep 10 gallons of tears, and then












introduce me to his two daughters. I mean, they're legal, right?

41. So, continuing the pattern of totally fucking up everything he's ever done....
If he is looking to target Dems, he could start by looking in Blue states and telling his thugs not to rough up and block Dems from his appearances. Not charging $200+ a ticket might help as well.
