I’ve said for a long time that, were it not for 9/11, Bush would have been a one-term president kicked out of office for doing nothing to fix a down economy. Instead, he got to blame our economic problems on 9/11 and not only use the resulting political capital to pass the second round of his godawful tax cuts, but then ride the war fever he induced to a second term.

Have to agree. And I think if Gore or Kerry ran better campaigns they could have beaten him too. The thing I laugh at is in 2004 all the media especially the right wingers were acting like Bush had a mandate. He won by one state and then Obama wins in the biggest electoral landslide in twenty years and he gets treated like this illegitimate usurper by the same people.
