Anger

I hope this observation is correct:

Intense and widespread opposition to President Bush is likely to be a sharp spur driving voters to the polls in this fall’s midterm elections, according to strategists in both parties, a phenomenon that could give Democrats a turnout advantage over Republicans for the first time in recent years...

"Angry voters turn out and vote their anger," said Glen Bolger, a pollster for several Republican congressional candidates. "Democrats will have an easier time of getting out their vote because of their intense disapproval of the president. That means we Republicans are going to have to bring our ‘A’ turnout game in November."

The latest Washington Post-ABC News poll showed 47 percent of voters "strongly" disapprove of Bush’s job performance, vs. 20 percent who said they "strongly approve."

I always thought the focus groups proved that people didn't like politicians that sounded angry. I would think if the voters are angry they'd like to vote for candidates that are just as angry as they are. Hmmmm.

I do like that 47% to 20% comparison though.
