How about one entitled "KERRY'S WIFE IS COMMIE LOVER?"

How about THAT headline?

[EternalVigilance]

"Intern's Dads think he is a sleazebag" may be just effective.

[Agnes Heep]

Fonda has denied that she even knew Kerry back then.

Understandable; but a look at his pecker should refresh her memory.

[EternalVigilance]

Make that:

"Intern's Dads think he's a sleazebag" may be just AS effective.

[gdyniawitawa]

This is turning to be bloody campaign and this lad Kerry disserves it. After all he said bring it on. Let the rumble begin.

[arly]

Isn't it ironic how a party which gave there draft dodger slick willie a pass for 8 yrs are now so concerned about a persons military record.

[AmericaUnited]

The race will settle into a pattern with Kerry ahead or tied with Bush from week to week, culminating in a dead heat in the final days. That could mean another long wait while the votes are counted on election night.

Complete bull! The public at large does not really know Kerry. The more they find out about him, the lower he'll go.

The best Kerry can do today, with Bush having a very bad month, and Kerry getting glowing coverage is tie Bush in some garbage poll. Just wait till the heavy guns start firing away at Kerry. BYE, BYE!

[BillyBoy]

According the RATs, the eeeeeeeeevil Republicans are always the candidate of "BIG polluters" "BIG oil", "BIG tobacco", etc., etc.

Therefore I suggest we refer to Kerry as the candidate of "BIG ketchup". Do the voters know how much the ketchup industry controls Kerry's warchest? ;-)

[StatesEnemy]

The only thing that Bush has to do is use Kerry's senatorial record as evidence of his inability to take a stand.

[wilmington2]

According to the Vietnamveteransagainstjohnkerry.com website Kerry got out of the Navy 6 months early as it was interfering with his turncoat (antiwar) activities.

[longtermmemmory]

How anyone can take this democrat as a serious contender to lead the united states is beyond reason. The only justification is to keep the democrat party from dying out.

BTW the fraud will be in the air. FReepers need to be poll watchers.

[Common Tator]

Does anyone in the media realize that this campaign will be the first chance Viet Nam Vets have had to get even with Kerry and Fonda.

2004 will be the year Viet Nam Vets get to protest against John Kerry and Jane Fonda

This time the VietNam Vets get to protest!!!

[Number_Cruncher]

"the Democrats were planning to run a sleazy campaign that would include unsubstantiated claims about Bush's personal life."

This suggests Kerry has something wrong with his personal life and his defense will be to charge others with what he is doing. It is projecting his own shortcoming on others. He is using the same tactics elsewhere by claiming he is mainstream and Bush is extreme, when it is the exact opposite. Ditto on AWOL when he was AWOL.

[Rome2000]

Kerry is a worse canidate than Janet Reno was.

[Dan from Michigan]

Vietnam war hero

He ain't no f@^#ing hero. Bob Dole was a war hero. Kerry ain't jacks**t, and he got his silver star for what people like my dad(Army recon) did over there every single day. It was mostly likely an 'officer's perk'(from what my dad said). My dad wasn't a war hero either. He did his duty well as a soldier.

being weak on national security,
His 20 year voting record shows that.

for favoring tax increases,

I already addressed that increase from 93 in a letter to the editor.

and for reversing his position on many issues over the years, including the war in Iraq.

Voted for it, but not to fund it.

Kerry will be attacked for supporting gun control (although he is a hunter)

So he's a hunter(and I have a hard time believing it unless it's one of those BS canned hunts.) So what? His gun record is beyond pathetic, and he COSPONSORED most of the worst bills around.

and the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Keep bringing NAFTA up in Michigan. Please do you outsourcing loving traitor.

What a BS article.

[JimSEA]

Giving a preview of the Bush attack lines, he also blasted Kerry for supposedly being weak on national security, for favoring tax increases, and for reversing his position on many issues over the years, including the war in Iraq.

I am in a complete quandry to understand how any of the above constitutes dirty politics or even "hardball".

[Maigrey]

Lemme fix something:

... for his heavily promoted background as a Vietnam war hero who later turned against the conflict as an act of conscience. traitor against his country.

There. Better.

[William McKinley]

but leaving basic questions still unanswered

You mean basic questions like how blatently partisan has the media become?

[Bobber58]

Giving a preview of the Bush attack lines, he also blasted Kerry for supposedly being weak on national security, for favoring tax increases, and for reversing his position on many issues over the years, including the war in Iraq.

telling the truth is now an attack line?

Adds Dallek: "It's not that Bush is a liar. It's that his judgment is not good. What you're dealing with here is a guy who rushes to judgment, who is driven by evangelical principles."

LOL, bigots by the dozen.
