Airstrip One

Wrong, wrong, wrong

Seems like a few helpings of humble pie are in order. I predicted that Bush would come out worse, as domestic policy would trump foreign policy. Well obviously he won and on a large part due to foreign policy.

It seems that he didn't. So my theory on the Falklands factor, that there isn't one - needs to be forgotten. How about the idea that Governments don't win elections due to winning wars. Fighting wars will still win you votes, after that the popularity drains regardless of the result.

Any counter examples to Churchill and Bush the First?
