What Candidate Kerry Can Expect From His Party

There is something strange and very scary going on within the Democratic Party. Its sinister, its diabolical, its maleficent, and its totally in keeping with what we have learned to expect with ''politics as usual ... Democrat style.'' Theres a dark moon rising on the political horizon and it is threatening to wreak havoc with this summers political process.
Im afraid the leading Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. John Kerry, is unknowingly and unwittingly trapped in a classic real-life horror story. He will inevitably re-enact the horror story in due time as we move closer and closer to the Democratic convention.
There exists an incongruity to the sequences of action within the Democrat operation. Series of events and rationales dont add up to their logical and expected conclusions, yet they never seem to come under media scrutiny.
Its as if the Democrats have reinvented truth. Two plus two no longer equals four, it equals whatever the Democrats tell the media to parrot back to the public. The Democrats have perfected the art of the shuck and jive with a straight-faced delivery and the media seem to be captivated and in love with the hypnotic farce.
Case in point: The Democrats still contend that Al Gore won the 2000 election. Yet, strangely enough, no substantial party donors, no Democratic power brokers and no significant number of delegates got behind Gore in the early weeks of the campaign. Doesnt that seem a little odd?
If Gore really did win in 2000, wouldnt Democrats be itching for the opportunity to prove to the world what they claimed was true? If the number of votes for victory were still there, why didnt the Democrats provide the arena for the proof?
I mean, come on. If Gore and the Democratic machine had succeeded in stealing the election from President Bush, Republican voters would have counted down the dwindling days on the calendar till the next election and marked them with their own blood. They would have walked through brick walls to carry President Bush, and only President George W. Bush, on their shoulders to the next election campaign to rub their honest victory in the face of the lying liars who lied to them.
The fact that no Democrat insider backed Gore is proof positive that they KNOW Gore lost the election. Even with illegal aliens and Democrat felons voting, Milwaukee derelicts bribed with cigarettes by New York limousine liberals, Philadelphia inner city precincts producing an unbelievable 100 percent turnout, a St. Louis Democrat judge keeping inner city districts open and voting until midnight, and the dead voting in almost every Democrat district--they still lost.
They didnt run Gore again, because they couldnt run Gore. He lost in 2000, they knew it, and he would lose again in 2004 and we know it. As Dick Cheney might say, he would lose again ''Big Time.''
Yet even more amazing is the fact that no media personality asked the Democrat kingmakers why, if Gore had already won, wasnt he again their nominee. There were no cries of ''Wheres Al?'' Seems like a simple, straightforward and obvious question to me.
Now, again, the Democrats stretch credulity with their candidate, Sen. John Kerry. The Democrats have a white-hot hatred of President Bush, yet we are expected to believe that the candidate they have chosen to send Bush back to Texas is Kerry?
Kerry is an arrogant Massachusetts elitist, educated beyond his intelligence, with a more liberal voting record than Ted Kennedy. He is a pathologically indecisive, opportunistic, United Nations bureaucrat-loving, Jane Fonda war veteran surrender monkey who sells his Renoir paintings for campaign cash.
This is ''their guy''? The guy who is going to relate to the common man and make the nation feel all warm and cozy and safe? This is the guy who is going to beat Bush in the South and Midwest?
I dont think so! Gore didnt even win his own state of Tennessee or Clintons Arkansas in 2000, but the Democrats think Kerry will? Please!
We, the public, are expected to believe this? And once again the good-for-nothing media don't find this strange at all. In fact, they are pumping the hype. Is he the real candidate or is he just another stalking horse until the Democratic convention? Dont expect the media to shed any light on that subject.
The Democrats seem to have found the perfect dupe in Kerry, as they did in Gore and Torricelli. Even when Gen. Wesley Clark slipped and prematurely told the media that ''Kerry will implode over an intern issue,'' who did Kerry blame for spreading lies? Why, President Bush, of course. Two hours later, Clarks campaign rushed to say that Clark would endorse Kerry for president.
Just a little hint of what Kerry can expect from his party.
The horror story that Kerry will unwittingly be re-enacting in a replay is the 1979 cult classic ''When a Stranger Calls.'' What a babysitter at first thinks is a joke turns scary when the caller asks about the children and seems to know a lot more than a stranger would know.
After the babysitter makes several calls to the police, they call back with the classic warning, '''Weve traced the calls ... theyre coming from inside the house!'' So, Sen. Kerry, when the intern issue that Gen. Clark first mentioned starts to get some more press just before the Democratic convention, and when the Vietnam veterans who hate your guts for your infamous war-bashing testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee start to get some valuable prime-time air on the national network news shows around the same time, remember: ''The calls, Sen. Kerry, the calls ... theyre coming from inside your [political] house.''

I think the author correctly sees the Clintons lurking in the background I think you are correct. I expect that Hillary will be positioning herself to not get burned if Iraq turns out favorable to Bush and/or we get UBL. I'm sure their machine can put the screws on Kerry to step down, regardless of the votes he has locked up.
The thing I worry about is a Kerry/McCain or Clinton/McCain ticket, as I fear McCain feels he has little political time left to "vindicate" himself.

"Perhaps Kerry will be dumped and Hillary will be nominated instead? This is my greatest fear."
Why? The Hildabeast stands no chance of beating Bush in November, unless the fraud is so egregious that even the media have to expose it. It is true that many Dems have a white-hot hatred of GWB, but it's also true that a majority of Americans, of whatever political stripe, have utter contempt for, if not outright hatred of, the Hildabeast.

The typical middle-class democrat I run into is a malcontent and a confused person. These people have a loser mentality, perhaps even a character disorder. People like Kerry either cannot or will not make a real decision. Listen up, Kerry: For each and every issue you have a decision to make; only a decision WILL be made!

"Philadelphia inner city precincts producing an unbelievable 100 percent turnout ..."
This factoid has been wandering the net since late 2000. It's simply not true. I have repeatedly challenged anyone to show me one sizeable precinct where it was so, with no response. I have looked personally at every philly precinct -- available from official sources. It's not true. The original source was a Jude Wanniski newsletter, which John Lott picked up in a column. It's like the "massive Black turnout" in Florida, which the Gorebots use to show GOP theft, and some right-wingers use to show Dem cheating. It didn't happen, either. The Fla SOS (Kathryn Harris, remember?), published turnout, by race. Black turnout in Fla was a bit lower than white, and right in line with 4 years earlier.
There are enough real things to worry about, without spreading untruths. I challenge again -- show me one precinct, by number and location, with 99% turnout of several hundred registered voters. 99% of the votes cast for Gore -- YES. 99% of the registered voting -- NO.

Excellent article. Whatever this lady does for a living, this is beautifully written and right on the money.
Hillary is, at the very least, keeping her options open. She has until next July to decide whether or not she wants to run for the presidency. If she decides to run, Kerry won't even know what hit him. He will be pulled from the race just like Toricelli, and she will come to the party's rescue by taking his place. By that time there will be no credible alternative to Kerry among the candidates.
All things being equal, Bush should win. But all things are not equal. the 2000 election involved an unprecedented degree of vote corruption, and hillary is capable of doing even worse things than that. They miscalculated how many votes they needed to steal. They won't make that mistake again.
Also, the economy is improving, but it is very precarious. The balance of payments deficits, building for the past 10 or 15 years, are astronomical. Japan could upset the apple cart any time they chose. Maybe China could too, and would be more likely to do so. And let's not forget that Alan Greenspan was one reason why Bush senior lost the 1992 election, because he (perhaps deliberately) reinflated the economy a couple of months too late.

My guess is that the Dems probably stole 5 or 6 million votes in 2000, and the media said little or nothing. In fact most of them said that Bush stole the election.
If hillary did that next November, the media would say nothing. The mainstream media outlets are all controlled by leftists, and for them the leftist agenda is much more important than the truth.
Besides, they miss all those wonder clinton cocktail parties at the White House. All the glamour and excitement, the free alcohol, the Hollywood starts. Things just haven't been the same for the Washington press corps.

How does she get past running against Guilianni for NY Senate in '06 if she doesn't run in '04?
If the early polls make it clear she will lose the senate seat, she'll go on a listening tour where the people of New York tell her they want her as president. Since it would be unfair to them to run for president while serving as their senator, she'll just have to step aside for someone else so she can devote full time to a presidential campaign.
Now isn't that noble of her
She doesn't need to get past Rudy, because she will NEVER run as long as Peter Paul is a live and in custody, and Aaron Tonken at the "ring-side!!!"

BR>Well that is a well said reality check.
These G W Bush products anger democrats too.

First of all I was just trying to be helpful to
you. And if you took offense that's too bad. I wasn't trying to be a smarta$$, or disrespectful. And by your posted comments you either didn't read the article OR didn't understand the gist of it.
As to informing on me, that's is the most childish thing I've seen posted anywhere in years. You definitely DON'T understand SARCASM and apparently you have very thin skin too. Did you snitch to the teacher too as a kid? Go to your room and cry.
BTW, where's YOUR Profile, huh bub? Or are you too chicken to fill it out? Sanctimonious people like you make me sick. Oh and are you even an American Citizen? What the hell heck is a daoist? (don't respond - that's rhetorical)
Oh, and in case you're confused again, this time I AM insulting you.

The only problem with Hill running in '08 (other than the obvious, that she's loathed from sea to shining sea), is that face in the mirror. She'll be older, fatter, and it'll be harder for a face lift to look normal and botox to do the job. '08 is her last chance, and if she has to run for her senate seat in '06 against Guiliani, she might well lose. Then she has no political base. If she could pry Kerry loose from the nomination somehow, or be on the ticket as vp, then maybe he has a tragic accident with a tree on some Aspen ski slope, well, she'd be at the top of the ticket and maybe get sympathy votes. She didn't go to Iraq around Thanksgiving to support the troops, guys. Hill has a plan.

Interesting how Gore's endorsement of Dean seemed to spell DOOM. Nobody in the press mentions Al anymore. Along with Bill Bradley, he's disappeared off the media radar (well, the Dean endorsements were a slap at Hill and Bill). RAT connivings are very interesting. They'd knife each other in a NY minute.

Wait a sec, Buchanan had those marvelous 4 thousand senior citizen votes in Palm Beach county, enough to swing the election to Bush even with all the rest of the chad cheating and denial of military votes. Hilarious. You couldn't make this stuff up!

Kerry and Lovie (Teraysa), won't ever believe he might be defeated. She's even more arrogant than he is, plus she's threatened to spend her fortune to achieve the presidency. Who cares if that's illegal, she'll get around that. She always gets what she wants. The only scenario that would make her happy to see him drop out would be a health issue. Plus, can you see Lovie kowtowing to Hill? Lovie and Kerry both know who's running the RAT party. This race is a kabuki (sp.?) dance.

Jumping up and down on the Lincoln bed, the Christmas tree decorated with condoms and sexual paraphernalia and all the other despicable hijinks too numerous to count. Those were the good old days. The RAT media can hardly wait.
