In The Hotline’s survey of state polls, President Bush leads in 24 states worth 205 electoral votes and John Kerry leads in 24 states worth 296 electoral votes (270 needed to win) …. Fabrizio, McLaughlin poll of voters in 19 battleground states: Kerry earns 47 percent, Bush 45 percent, and Nader 2 percent…. Bush on Kerry’s opposition to missile defense: “I think those who oppose this ballistic missile system don’t understand the threats of the 21st century.” …Secretary of state Colin Powell, in The Atlantic: “We are a superpower that cannot be touched in this generation by anyone in terms of military power, economic power, the strength of our political system, and our value system. What we would like to see is a greater understanding of the democratic system, the open-market economic system, the rights of men and women to achieve their destiny as God has directed them to do, if they are willing to work for it. And we really do not wish to go to war with people, but, by God, we will have the strongest military around, and that’s not a bad thing to have. It encourages and champions our friends that are weak and chills the ambitions of the evil.” …Gallup poll: 49 percent say w an in Iraq was “worth it” and 48 percent say “not worth it.”
