Running the numbers on George W. Bush:

This article breaks it all down very simply. No need to do the math, the figures speak for themselves.

In spite of all this, one more number which should snap everyone out of their complacency. The 13-point bounce W got from the GOP Convention. This compares to the 4-point "dead cat bounce" Kerry got coming out of the Dem Convention.

Kerry needs to do something dramatic to point out the myriad failures of George W. Bush's Presidency, or we need W to do something stupid between now and 11/2. Otherwise it's four more years of this crap. Or worse.
