In relation to a Musil post last month, I mentioned how biased Larry Sabato has revealed himself to be. Well, I hadn't seen anything yet. You might as well listen to Teddy Kenedy, judging from Sabato's latest:

the U.S.-occupied country that is starting to look like Vietnam without the jungle....the similarities are scary.
.....
if people want to extricate the country from the Iraq quagmire, they will have no choice but to vote for John Kerry, however much they may dislike him or disagree with him on other issues. If the preeminent issue in November is Iraq, Bush will lose. (Bold FROM the original)
.....
the President intends to keep his July 1 turnover deadline in Iraq. Let the Iraqi Governing Council deal with the violence and kidnapping and rioting during the general election campaign! Iraq, We Hardly Knew Ye.
....
The stunning addition of 308,000 jobs in March--plus an upgrading of job gains for January and February--offers Bush his salvation. The trick, though, is that he needs strong numbers through the early fall in order to convince Americans that this shift is real, and not simply an election-year manipulation of the depressing statistics to which they have become accustomed for the entire Bush term. (emphasis added)
....
Barely elected and headed for a mediocre, one-term presidency, Bush was sent to the summit of public adulation after September 11, 2001

Sabato

One whopper after another.
