    Wait a second...

    ...does anyone think that Rove/Bush aren't aware of these trends? They've managed to delude themselves on a lot of issues, but only once when it comes to politics, when the Dems took Congress.

    So I have to wonder: if they know that younger voters are trending against them, what will they do about it? In many ways, it really does seem as if they simply don't intend to give up power. A "false flag" terrorist attack on a major US city would be one excuse that they could use to suspend the 2008 elections.
