Success or defeat won't be decided by GWB's poll performance - good or bad.

That was kind of my point. GWB's performance ratings are slipping, but I don't think that the Dems will translate that into faith in the Republican party as a whole slipping.

For the Dems to succeed, they've got to find a candidate the majority of the voters, not just the "faithful," believe isn't a dyed-in-the-wool ideologue. Someone who is more centrist than the 10-13% of the party.

Mr. Clinton proved it. Mrs. Clinton is trying to do the same.

I completely agree, but the problem is that nearly all of our charismatic potential candidates are either women or minorities, and let's face it, we're still a long way from having anyone but a white man in the Oval Office.
