Melvs, to some extent, that's certainly true. The target smaples for these polls aren't necessarily accurate, as the voter turnout is expected to be quite different this election than it was last election, owing to the ostensible importance of this one, and the fact that 9/11 is likely to stir people to the polls. But the fact that Bush's approval rating has apparently exceeded 50% for the first time in quite a while suggests that he's on the upswing at the moment. We'll see how things stand in a few months (the debates being absolutely key here), but really, the burden is on Kerry to win this election, and he needs to step his campaign up somehow, because blind optimism aside, things do not look good. People just don't seem to like the guy.
Maybe at some point voters will start caring about what the rest of the world thinks, and elect a president who is like-minded? I don't know, it seems to me you people are all either afraid of terrorists attacking you in your homes or concerned about taxation of rich people. Why Bush? It can't be economic policy (unless you're incredibly naive or uninformed), and I certainly hope for the sake of American decency that it isn't foreign policy, so what's keeping people voting for Bush? Tax cuts? I shouldn't like to think Americans, as a people, are quite that devoted to their wallets (besides the fact that only the rich stand to benefit under Bush as opposed to Kerry). It seems like the tables have turned... a lot of people are supporting him just because he's not John Kerry. I can't say I saw that one coming.

A stormy haze
I’ll be around
I’ll be loving you
Always

Here I am
And I’ll take my time
Here I am
And I’ll wait in line
Always
Always...
