most disturbing thing in politics this week?

I'm not convinced on this yet. There is still 60 or so days to go, Kerry has at least 40% of the vote wrapped up, and no president has gotten 50% of the vote since at least 1988. This is still going to be close, and a lot can happen in the time remaining, especially in the debates. I know W is always misunderestimated, but I cannot breathe a sigh of relieve until the 3rd debate is over.

The election will be a referendum on W. W has moved up a tick or two in the polls in the last few weeks by laying low and letting surrogates attack Kerry. But the focus will come back to Bush, and his record. People don't like his budget deficits, and they don't like his war, and so the question is whether they can swallow all that for firm leadership in the war on terrorism.
