Please, don't make me laugh. The Republicans are going to win this race easily, particularly now that market is going to go heavily bull in 2004. You should know, I know, Bush knows it.
Granted, that has more to do with the Federal Reserve than the Bush tax cuts, but voters tend to vote in a fairly dumb manner when it comes to the economy.
We all know that the middle class will sway right-wing, since it is the Republicans who are protecting marriage, ousted a dictator, and stood up against challenges that arose from 9/11 - not to mention slashing taxes a little.
The elderly will go Rep thanks to that fact that they actually passed a change to Medicare, something that the Dems have talked about but never followed up on.
Outside of minorities, the poor are going to be devisive since Bush has increased government funding in areas relevant to them.
The rich, obviously, will vote Republican.
All that aside, I'd like to think that Libertarians will pick up a little this year and possibly cause the Republicans to lose now that the Greens are gone, but I know that is just unrealistic.
