I think people greatly overestimate Bush's desire and ability. I'll agree that he's not good at making decisions, he's not a good speaker, he doesn't understand shit about foreign relations or the economy, and we'd be better off without him. But I do not agree that he is evil and deceptive enough to extend his power for another term. Shit, I don't even think he wants to serve the rest of his term with all the scrutiny he receives.... his approval rating is the lowest its ever been. Watching him give the speech about the economy the other day was like watching someone try to dodge bullets from a machine gun. Bush knows that his time is over, he had his chance and he blew it. Even if there was a catastrophic terrorist attack on our soil, the most he would do is try his hardest to get McCain the presidency. The American public, as well as all the politicians in Congress, would not stand for an illegal third Bush term. It simply wouldn't happen... he would either be assassinated or thrown in prison if he even attempted it, and it would completely ruin any career that his administration might have in the future

....On a side note, I still find it hilarious that people think George W. Bush is competent enough, resourceful enough, and organized enough to have planned 9/11.
