Wrong track

From the AP/Yahoo News Poll:

There is a widespread unease—shared by 77 percent—that the country has meandered off in the wrong direction. Nearly all Democrats and more than six in 10 Republicans think the country has taken the wrong course. And although almost half express interest and hope in the upcoming elections, a third voice frustration—particularly Republicans.

President Bush has, at long last, made good on his campaign pledge to be an uniter, not a divider. You cannot get eight in ten Americans to agree that the sun will rise tomorrow but due to Bush’s stellar record of accomplishment, nearly 80% of us recognize that W does not know what the fuck he is doing. And if you are a Republican running for office, the news is grim, to say the least.

More Democrats than Republicans say they are hopeful about the voting, 54 percent to 39 percent, and more of them are interested in it. Republicans are more likely to say the election leaves them frustrated and bored.

"There's no one out there to vote for," Rocky Belcher, 43, a Republican and college professor from Vandalia, Ohio, said about the GOP field. "That means a lot of Republicans may not get out there to vote."

Frustrated, bored, and uninterested – three words that should scare the hell out of the GOP field.
