J I You're running on the assumption that Bush thinks America holds him accountable for what he does. They don't. All Bush has to do is have an R next to his name, and he has the presidency.
I've challenged the Republicans to name *something* Bush does or has done well. They can't come up with anything. There is nothing really about Bush that makes him extremely qualified for the presidency. American politics is more akin to a football game. You have your Home team, and the Away team, and that's who you vote for.
The fact that people who vote either way are called "swing voters" is proof that America is full of Lemmings. Every american should be a "swing" voter. Unfortunately for us, people have relegated election choices down to party labels. Bush could be the absolute worst candidate for president, which he basically is, and he will still get the Republican vote.
