Let me ask you this:

Are you more pissed that Kerry can't seem to campaign his way out of a paper bag, and appears fairly likely to lose what should be an entirely winable election (in light of the economy, employment, and the current administration's foreign policy bungles), or

that the American people can't seem to see how bad Bush as been and persist in their (slightly more than 50%) support for Bush?
I always thought Kerry was a flawed candidate, so what's the point in getting pissed about it now? I'm also not throwing in the towel now. There's way too much time before the election, and the race is essentially tied. Kerry was up some six weeks ago, Bush is up some now, but what matters is who's up six weeks from now.

It does bother me that Bush's support isn't weaker. I attribute this to (a) the Democrats doing a poor job of attacking on the issues, and (b) people's natural and understandable reluctance to change leaders during a fight.
