What Bush should do...

The economy is growing fast, so nothing more can be done about jobs - they'll get here when they get here.  Nobody in government can influence this in the short term.

But your implication is correct, the best thing that could happen for Bush is another terrorist attack, just like the best thing for Kerry is a bad economy.

Bush should cancel the election.

Just kidding.

It's good that you put the 'just kidding' in there, since you're one of the few people I could expect saying that seriously...I suppose you can see that it would enrage people and not work out?

Yeah, of course!  As I said I was just kidding.  But it would be an even crazier story than an electoral tie.  Actually an electoral tie coupled with some kind of electors shifting to Kerry would be the only scenario I could imagine anything close to a coup.
