Like a chicken with its head cut off, Bush veers off to NM rather than MI

!! Chaos and confusion have finally taken over the Bush campaign at the last minute, it seems? They are giving up on Michigan ! From his speeches this morning, he sounds desperate and whiny, in my opinion.

1. NM is tied, while Kerry is leading in Michigan, so that's probably why.

Going to NM more productive, since Bush was recently leading there. This all is per Zogby.

2. Was he scheduled in both places today or is NM a last minute change?

3. NM was on the itinerary already - then overnight at the 'Lazy W' ranch

soon to be his permanent residence...

4. He had a tiny crowd - wherever he was earlier today

Chris Jansing said it was due to repubs out working for W - too busy to be at his rally :eyes:

5. travels to Columbus, Ohio, to thank campaign volunteers on Tuesday!.

Seems Ohio is not wrapped up!

6. I guess an additional problem

is that anyone who shows up at Bush rallies has to go thru a lot of screening & has to sign a loyalty pledge etc etc etc.

Not good when the minutes are ticking, George.

Besides, he's going to lose. I just heard on AAR that an incumbent president who drops below 50 polling points in wartime is finished.

Sorry, George.

7. He always sounds whiny IMO

But great news if they are giving up on MI. Nail. Coffin.

Permanent vacation on the fake "ranch" for Chimpy.
