We here at crushkerry.com are pretty good at seeing the future (i.e. predicting the "brown book" attacks on the Swifties; and the dissension in the Kerry camp over how to respond to the Swifties). Thus, we can pretty much say with certainty that we have caught on to how the media is going to explain away a possible Kerry loss. (Editor's Update Our buddy Pat Curley of Kerry Haters had similar thoughts to ours prior to our article being published. Great minds think alike)
You see, every 2 years or so, the left concocts conspiracy theories about evil, lying Republicans that lie, cheat and steal simply to win elections. Of course all these are flights of fantasy, and in some cases, tin foil hat conspiracy theories, are pure lies.
In 2000, it was the Florida police putting up roadblocks to keep blacks from voting, thus denying Al Gore is rightful place in the White House (which was since proven false). The most in vogue conspiracy is that Max Cleland lost in 2002 only because he was compared to Saddam Hussein and Osama thus causing the poor rubes (the voters) to elect Saxby Chambliss.
We have read the apoplectic comments from the liberal establishment big shots concerning the highly successful GOP convention. Thus, we can predict their post-mortem spin on why Kerry lost (couldn't have been him after all). You see, this week the liberal establishment has shown their cards on the game plan to explain why it was that, like the simpleton Reagan, the idiot Bush was re-elected.
Transport yourself to the middle of 2005 when, God willing, President Bush will just be starting his second term. It is about this time that the in-depth reviews of the 2004 election will take place. Of course, the liberal opinion makers will have to give an explanation of where, when, and why things went wrong.
Certainly, the Swift Boat Vets will be mentioned as getting the ball rolling. They have already been attacked as liars, Republican shills and members of some secret George W. Bush cult (next week it will be revealed they hate children and kick dogs).
Still, they can be marginalized by the left wing press as kooks. What the liberals really need is to be able to place the blame on the Republican leadership for lying and cheating their way into office. They will need to be able to point to a time when the evil scheming GOP finally succeeded in their evil plot to throw King John over the cliff and explain why it happened.
Well, we're here to tell you the media will say that defining moment was the final 2 days of the GOP Convention. Trust us, the liberals will be using the same hymn book from the 2002 Cleland conspiracy, and just changing the lyrics to fit John Kerry's sad, sad, song.
As you will see from the recent columns below, the cause for John Kerry's defeat will be the false, distorted and hateful attacks by Zell Miller, Dick Cheney, and finally President Bush on John Kerry's "manhood" and "patriotism" during the last 2 days of the GOP convention. To the left, these 2 days will be the equivalent of the anti-Cleland ads and Willie Horton all wrapped into one.
How do we know this? Let's take a look at what the nation's leading, and most widely read liberals has said during the convention and its aftermath First up, the DNC house organs posing as columnists at the New York Times:
Paul Krugman(9/3) : The title of his column "Feel The Hate" pretty much sums this up. He also claims that Republicans hate America and are attacking John Kerry's patriotism because they know that President Bush, "never in his life took a risk or made a sacrifice for his country". The reason people would vote for Bush is that he has unfairly made them fear John Kerry.
Maureen Dowd (9/2): This bitter old romancer of crackheads called Zell Miller, "Cotton Mather behind the cross-like lectern" and lamented that the GOP was using "non-girlie men" speakers to make Kerry look like a hippie 60's protestor, and communicated that they world wouldn't be safe with Kerry in charge.
Frank Rich(9/3): Perhaps the poster boy for "girly-men", Frank Rich had a downright hissy fit this week. He was deeply offended by the fact that "sissy" Bush had the audacity to "castrate" John Kerry, a man who SERVED IN VIETNAM YOU KNOW. Rich also sees what the rest of don't. All this was Karen Hughes' master plan, starting from when she wrote her book.
The leftist intelligentsia at the Washington Post also tagged teamed this week to lay the groundwork for the Kerry "2004 Excuse Tour" (Get your concert shirts now!).
EJ Dionne(9/3): He was deeply hurt by Zell Miller's speech, which he called the "most vicious and demagogic convention speeches in the television age." He laments that in order to win the GOP must leave the country more divided and broken.
Richard Cohen(9/4): He got so mad, he thought of a fight he witnessed in high school. Not participated in, mind you, as we highly doubt this seeming wuss was ever in a fight himself. He got so darn mad--he wanted someone else to fight back. Cohen whined that the GOP convention was "loathsome affair, suffused with lies and anger,", as well as Miller's speech being "as mad an eruption of hate as I have witnessed in politics". Shut up Richard, he just was doing for us what Kerry wouldn't do - highlight his 20 year Senate record. Do you and EJ share the same manicurist or something, where you talked about Miller's speech being the worst thing since the bubonic plague?
Joe KleinNot to be outdone by the Times or the Post, was this ultra-whiny lefty with seemingly perpetual angst. Both on CNN and in Time Klein called the Miller speech "the ugliest I've ever seen at a convention." He even said Kerry had license to lie, given the G.O.P. "assault" on him
In the interests of bandwidth, you can also read the tears flowing from the pages (or in this case computer screens) of:
Andrew Sullivan (9/2): He laments the "hateful rhetoric" of an "angry old man"
Helen Thomas (9/3): She gets angry about the "vicious attacks" and "disgraceful and false accusations" against Kerry
Susan Estrich(9/1) is as mad as hell and and isn't going to take it anymore, even if it means leveling insane charges against the President
John Glenn (9/3) who was obviously in space too long, likened the convention rhetoric to Hitler
Paul Begala (9/2) posited that whoever wrote Miller's speech was a "right wing thug" and that Miller delivered it "like a good Marine"; and finally
Terry McCauliffe (9/3)attacked Miller's "spew of anger"
We think you get the picture. Much like they were not (and still aren't), able to admit that Cleland lost because he put collective bargaining over national security, the left will never be able to think that a Kerry loss was because of Kerry himself. Sure, they will wring their hands about Kerry and his staff not responding well to attacks, and their failure to craft a proper message.
But their still missing the boat. The problem is not with the tactics or the way in which they go about doing things. The problem is with the candidate himself, his 20 year socialistic voting record, his political opportunism, his inability to give a simple clear answer to whether or not he's having a good day, etc. However, to the left, this would mean admitting to themselves their ideas are intellectually and ideologically bankrupt, and not shared by most people. But since they are so much smarter than us, that can't be the case.
So get ready for the "Clelanding" of John Kerry sometime around next year should he lose. Hey, that's fine with us, so long he loses.

The girly-men complain because they were called "girly-men".
The chickens haven't hatched yet.
Let's all just pray that Kerry fails in his bid for a more French America.....
Let their minister of misinformation Michael Moore preach it all.
In the end as long as John Kerry has lost, America will be safer.
One major reason that Kerry will lose is that the Main Scream Media no longer controls the flow of information.
I dunno, I have a funny feeling that 200 dead Russian children may end up having as much to do with John Kerry losing this election as anything the Republicans do.

Kerry looses eleciton because he is a narcissistic liar, a Socialist that loves and supports Communism, a traitor to America, a Flip - Flopper that has no posiiton, and the most Liberal Senator in the Senate and he voted against every weapons system that the US needs to fight terrorism.

HOW MANY OF THESE TRAITS TO YOU SEE IN JOHN KERRY? I SEE ALL OF THEM. KERRY IS SICK LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, AND WE CAN NOT ALLOW THIS NUT CASE TO GET ELECTED.
Good choice on what Life to follow.
John Glen had a panic attack during his triple orbit. The media hid it.
I think you will want to looks at this for ideas on 2004 Democratic defeat myths for the 2006 elections.
Excellent compilation of excrement!! ;)
Researching for this had to have been nauseating.
Thanks for the analysis. In short, they are a bunch of whiners.
I think the castration was "self-inflicted".
These people spew forth propaganda; that's all. Truth for its own sake is a laughable nonconsideration to them.
Fortunately, a large component of the electorate is wise to them and disregards their laughable contentions, and, for this reason, to their dismay and dispite their most determined efforts, the American people will re-elect the deeply honorable and highly capable George Bush to the Presidency.
These people have done their best to portray the highly intelligent President Bush as unintelligent. Their efforts become even more laughable as he intellectually dances circles around them and exposes them for the buffoons that they are.
One finds oneself laughing at them and pitying them at the same time.
The grotesque is a combination of the funny and the horrible. What's a combination of the funny and the pitiable called?
