In some states you can even smell the fear of defeat on the Republican side of the fence, and with good reason. the failing economy, the financial markets tanking, and the falling job market are owned by the Republicans in general and not just George Bush.
John McCain owns these problems. Senators Mitch McConnell ( KY ), Ted Stevens (Alaska), Elizabeth Dole (N.C.), and a host of other Republicans, not only from the Senate but the House all own our currant problems. So do quite a few of our Democrats, lest we forget.
The good news though...
With the party already struggling to generate enthusiasm for its brand, Republican strategists fear that an outpouring of public anger generated by Congress's struggle to pass a rescue package for the financial industry may contribute to a disaster at the polls for the GOP in November.
"The crisis has affected the entire ticket," said Jan van Lohuizen, a Republican consultant who handled the polling for President Bush's reelection campaign. "The worse the state's economy, the greater the impact."
So how is it that John McCain and other Republicans are even close in their respective races when Obama should be blowing his ass out of the water? Race, plain and simple. this mind set has to change.
