Kerry, mostly because Iraq has gotten even worse than it was before.

I wonder how many people regret voting for Bush right now.

See, this is a very good argument for moving Election Day to July 5. Tongue

Except that most people who voted in November already had a negative opinion on the War in Iraq, but positive views on Bush's handling on the overall War on Terror

Basically even on the second one now.



If people knew about the 8/06/01 memo, that'd be a lot lower.

Bush, Kerry lost because he's a bad candidate and not because Bush was overwhelmingly popular.

That said, it would be a little closer, but Bush wins by 100k strong in Ohio at the very least.

Kerry.  Bush's job approval was about 8 points higher at the time of the election-enough to win him the election.

Bush's numbers are not consistently worse now then they were in Nov 2004.

Gallup/CNN/USAToday: now 47% approve/51% disapprove; 10/31-04 48% approve/47% disapprove

FOX News: now 48% approve/43% disapprove; 10/31/04 47% approve/46% disapprove

CBS/NYT: now 42% approve/ 51% disapprove 10/30/04 49% approve/42% disapprove

So on average, 2+% higher approval percentage on election day and 4% lower disapproval rate.  Hardly staggering

Bush would win as long as his opponent was Kerry.
