A BLOWOUT IN THE MAKING
New York Post ^ | 3/24/04 | DICK MORRIS

March 24, 2004 -- THE Bush ads are working: Two weeks ago, the Washington Post poll showed Sen. John Kerry ahead of President Bush by 11 points, and the Gallup Poll had him up by 8, while more recent polls reflect a dead heat between the two. Zogby (March 21) has Kerry up by only 48-46, and Rasmussen (March 20) has it Bush 46, Kerry 45.

I don't think it's Bush's ads. I think it's because John Kerry is in the news a lot. There's something about the guy that makes people dislike him -- he's a pompous, boring, perfect-haired, lying, jockstrap buying phoney.

Gore winning the popular vote is still the biggest joke ever. Gore also only won 21 states, which the media failed to report. The media also played down the fact that if Gore won his home state, the 2000 election was his.

Kerry is probably going to win the same 21 states, with an over/under of 2. Bush will win Florida again.

For the most part this election cycle will be interesting.

I apologize to all for the Tim Burton mental visual. It didn't occur to me until your post. Now, I am having a hard time purging this sanity. I keep seeing it over and over again.

Dick Morris predicted that Hillary would LOOSE the NY Senator race in a landslide also.

I look forward to November with morbid curiousity, to see if the publik has smartened up any since then.

My stance is that if President Bush wins, then things will continue to improve. If Kerry wins, then this country deserves whatever it gets, and I'll kick back and laugh about it all. What else could we do?

Make no mistake: This will be a close election. Both candidates have a massive political base of roughly equal strength. This base will hardly shift in its support, regardless of what the candidates do.

Understand that the true percentage of swing voters in America today has shrunk to 7% of the voting public. 7% of American voters are likely to vary their vote between the parties at every election. That is all. The other 93% are more or less set.

I got those numbers from a conservative campaign staffer the other day.

This cycle will bring out ALL the dirty tricks of the RATS. Somethings that will be guaranteed:

1. October Suprise - Chances that a replay of Spain will occur in a major US city.
2. Election fraud - RATS will say some large state that voted Gore in 2000 and now voted for Bush rigged the election and should throw out the vote.
3. The DNC will pull a Torrecelli and bring in a different candidate at the last minute.
4. RATS will release intel report about 9/11 and will lie ad skew the job numbers.
5. And finally, Soros Soros Soros. Watch the economy. Soros will definitely have something up his sleeve.

I wouldn't be surprise about another negative media blitz occurring a couple of days before election night. This allows for the hatred and disgust to fume and bump John Kerry's numbers up. This tactic doesn't allow for the truth to come out. John Kerry has already had a strategy party at Al Franklin apartment with most attendees being major newspaper editors. They helped him get the nomination and next the Presidency.

but...Gore won the popular vote

Sorry FlyVet but this is a lie. Once you subtract out vote fraud and add in the absentee and military ballots that weren't counted you'll find that President Bush won in a landslide. A landslide so big that the democrats underestimated how many fraudulent votes they really needed and therefore didn't manufacture enough to win. That's why there was the frantic recount after recount in Florida. They were trying to manufacture some more votes somehow to save their failed attempt to steal the election

If we guard against vote fraud this election we'll see a landslide win for President Bush so huge it will make dukakis look like he was a good candidate

I saw your new tagline on another thread:

"I went to Vietnam, yada yada yada, and now I want to be President"

Whatever Morris said 'a short time ago' is kind of beside the point. I think his analysis here is right on. Bush 59%, Kerry 39%, Nader 2%. Go W!

Kerry never really ran for office before. As a liberal democrat in the PRMA, he virtually ran unopposed in every election save 1. He may be a skillful orator going back to his college years as an award winning debater, but he is sorely lacking in conviction and character. This is apparent in his flip flopping and his voting record. He is not the man to beat Bush and he is not the man to lead this nation.

miserable failure miserable failure miserable failure miserable failure war criminal

November's gonna be a Bush blow-out.

From your keyboard to God's ears! But remember, you-know-who is waiting in the wings. A last minute JerseyRAT style switch is not out of the question...

Dicky thought Dean had the nomination. Bush is in trouble BIG time.

Rasmussen Twist: Kerry Leads Bush by 3, Shift of 6 Points vs. Yesterday

I think using Vietnam is a big mistake for Kerry. I grew up during the Vietnam war and I'm SICK TO DEATH OF HEARING ABOUT IT! I'm sure anyone born after the Veitnam war is sick of it too. That doesn't bode well for the younger vote.

Kerry makes me SICK!

The Democrat Vote Fraud Machine will be in full effect.

Thus the tagline. There wasn't room to add "or take your video camera and follow the RAT bus from polling place to polling place".

By the way, if you have personal knowledge of any of OUR people planning such shenanigans, (1) warn them off (2) report them within the party and (3) if they follow through on it, turn them in. The rules is the rules for everyone!

What, Kerry was in Vietnam? I wonder why he never mentions it. ;-)
