Bush Vs. Lincoln
The Race as It stands now: “‘Ten days ago, we were at a huge fork in the road,’ said Democratic pollster Geoffrey Garin. ‘This could have become 1988 [when Bush’s father took control over Michael S. Dukakis shortly after Labor Day] and was a real moment of danger for the Kerry campaign. In a lot of ways, he’s survived it and we’re back to a very competitive race again.'”
