2004 Presidential Election
Baghdad Burning: "I'm avoiding the internet because it feels like the pictures are somehow available on every site I visit. I'm torn between wishing they weren't there and feeling, somehow, that it's important that the whole world sees them. The thing, I guess, that bothers me most is that the children can see it all. How do you explain the face of the American soldier, leering over the faceless, naked bodies to a child? How do you explain the sick, twisted minds?

Taegan Goddard: "In Blueprint, Mark Gersh makes a compelling case that the "battleground states" of the 2000 election are different this time around."
John Kerry leads George Bush, 47 to 44, in a recent American Research Group national poll. President Bush leads Senator Kerry, 46 to 44, in a recent AP-Ipsos poll national poll. It's pretty much a tie. That's why the Electoral College vote, being fought out in the battleground states, is worth watching. This week Senator Kerry's campaign, flush with a bunch of dough, added Colorado and Louisana to the list even though they are leaning red.
Senator Kerry leads President Bush, 43 to 37, in New Jersey according to a recent Star-Ledger Rutgers/Eagleton poll. The American Research Group shows a deadlock in Oregon, 45 to 45 the President Bush leads Senator Kerry, 47 to 43 in West Virginia, according to the the AP via Taegan Goddard.
