Has George Bush Been Masterful?

I don't know if Bush did it, but Republicans are really motivated right now, while Democrats are a bit disenchanted. The reason Republicans won the Senate was because the white male voter turnout was substantially higher this last election, while every other voter block was pretty much unchanged. That shows that Republicans might not necessarily have changed the political positions of the majority in this country, but they've done a much better job of mobilizing their supporters to get out and vote. I don't know if Bush can be credited for that. I think the party as a whole has just been really united. The War on Terrorism has given them a new focus and an elevated platform.
