"Bush/Cheney are a sure winner."

Thanks, psychic Ronnie! Say, do you know the deffinition of the word 'sure' in this context?

As that sure as in 'we're sure there are weapons of mass destruction', or sure as in 'we're sure we've realeased all of W's service records'? Maybe it's as in 'I'm sure we don't support the formation of a 9/11 committee' or as in 'we're sure we've found the weapons of mass destruction.' maybe its the kind of sure as in 'we sure will create jobs during our adminsitration.' or 'we sure did inherit this recession'. Oh! I know! 'We sure did accomplish that mission'! or maybe 'The world sure is safer!' or 'I'm sure my administration has no connection to Swift Boat Vets for Truth' or 'their lawyer sure isn't my campaign lawyer anymore'. Maybe it's as in 'I sure will report for drills in Boston.'

What will you do if they loose? In the face of your smug sureness, how will you even walk upright if your universe gets re-ordered? Well, 'sure' is a flexible word for you. I'm 'sure' you'll find some way to cope.
