After looking at a few of the headlines and stories today, I just wonder what bushie's numbers will be like by next week. Looks like a sinking ship. Do you think they are in full panic mode yet?

32,000 jobs rather than 200,000 + that was expected. Yikes!

1. And he is now down 8 points in Florida

might be time for another appearance from Tom Ridge.

3. Wow.

Another appearance from Tom Ridge right now just might make those numbers go down more. Seems like this has been a rough week since he came out last week-end with the "new" terror threat.

2. the "who the heck" quote makes me think of "Fargo"

when Willam H. Macy was getting real nervous, and his voice was getting real high. :-)

9. "You lied to me, Mr. Lundegaard."

[fofer]

12. "What the heck d'ya mean?"

4. How about the record price for oil?

"It's the economy, stupid!", as The Big Dog so suucinctly put it. Stick a fork in him--- Bush is done.

5. Falling stocks, falling choppers, falling soldiers...

The headlines this week have definately been a bitch for Bush (aka 'Gunslinger'). Personally, the election can't come soon enough for me.

7. He's got................

2 more months of job reports to make up ground. If there isn't some fantastic number (350,000 or so) he has NO hope of using the economy to his advantage.

I'd almost feel good about this if it weren't for all the good people in this country suffering because of his failed policies.

11. This is definitely a time for gallows humor.

8. It's not the "200,000 + that was expected" that's the problem...

I was up until midnight or so last night (Pacific Time) and the most recent AP / Reuters / MSNBC / CNN / etc stories I saw all said the same thing: "That number could go as high as THREE hundred thousand."

Imagine my surprise when I got up this morning and found out they were only off by 268,000...

10. The family is meeting in Maine this weekend on the wedding of George P.

Be assured that they will have time to plan HOW they are going to steal our votes and if need be cancel our elections!:grr:
