I've talked to quite a few people at work over the last little while who express fairly deep unease over the way things are going (admittedly though, I don't hang with the big dogs). When I ask for specifics, it seems the most common response I get is the way America is currently regarded abroad.

While this hardly stands as a scientifically accurate poll--and as Tom has pointed out, there's a political eternity between now and November--I get an impression that the race for the Whitehouse could be a real contest.

ps. Scott Ritter's on Dennis Miller tommorow night. Slithering traitor, or courageous whistle-blower? I wish I knew...
