...ten thousand fundamentalist Christians are swayed to stay home instead of casting their vote on Election Day.
I'm surprised so few here can see that this is part of the Kerry campaign's strategy to split bush* from his base. Rove has stated that four million fundies stayed home last time and that if they can get them out this time victory is in the bag. He's probably right. That's the reason for the secret code talk about Dred Scott in the debate.
Each day more and more come to see this man as a False Prophet. His running mate is pro-gay? If God is directing him then why has failed so miserably? Why has everything gone so wrong?
This election will be won by GOTV. Mentioning Mary drives the stake a little deeper in the division between bush* and his base. He has succeeded in peeling back some his opponent's base without damaging support from his own or from the uncommitteds.
I think it will be THEIR side that puts an end to this story first. Two days is more than enough...
Sadly the Dems seemed to think that opening the issue about Mary Cheney would keep the Republican Base home. If anything it should energize it because what's the alternative? A President who would sell out this country in a heartbeat?
And about 250,000 women were revolted by that attack on family members and kerry's other weird remarks.. Especially the 'marrying up' stuff.
"mention of Mary Cheney was meant as an attack"
and justify its intention;
mistaken in its effects; fundamentalists let pro-abortion Kerry win because of the v.p.'s daughter?? come on.
This from the party of tolerance.
So, which party is the one of bigots? Hmmmm? WE didn't mention shame...they did.
250,000? I bet it was more.
The DUH crowd wears such cute tinfoil hats
HEY DU'er's..... Your party just fired us UP! Early voting starts here on Monday... I can assure you that WE WILL be out in FULL FORCE!
I've been to DU a few times, but not really up on their lingo. Why do they use the * for Bush? anyone know the what it means? Can they just not bear to say his name?
Seriously, did anybody not vote for President Reagan simply because of Ron Jr. or Patti? Why would Mary Cheney make any difference then?
How dare Cheney love his child! What a right-wing Christian bigoted hateful value.
They are horribly wrong on both counts. Don't worry, these people will get what they deserve.
informed fundamentalist Christian voters like myself have known for years that Mary Cheney was gay. She's a adult, she makes her own choices and she has to face her maker for the ultimate choice, and that's not the gay lifestyle.
DU'ers counting on this keeping our troops away is laughable.
Fundamentalist Christians would belly crawl naked(like Kerry hunts) on broken glass over burning coals to vote for the President that passed partial birth abortion and wants to kill those who want to kill us.
The Rat party has lost all sense of decency. They are now controled by a bunch of 60's radicals and leftists who seek power by any means necessary. If they win, it validates their methods and they will become more extreme. If they lose, I expect that many will think they did not go far enough and will also become more extreme.
Well, I meant former kerry supporters that are no longer such.
They're morons. And they don't understand conservatives at all.
Message to DU: Mary Cheney is not an inhibiting factor in our determination to defeat your phony war hero; in fact, the Cheneys' reaction to your provocation only deepens our admiration for the Vice President and his wife. With effort, patience, and a bit of help from Providence, Kerry will be defeated.
