His inability to gain traction despite the media's vicious, wall-to-wall attacks on Pres. Bush for nearly 2 straight months, should have the smoky back room Democrats extremely worried about Kandidate Kerry.
I think this thing about wanting to raise more money is a smokescreen. The dems knew that all along when they picked their convention date.
What's new is Kerry's inability to get anyone at all excited.
I suspect they've laid down the law for him.
It is to the medias advantage to keep the race even.
A one sided race (Pres. Bush) ahead by 10 points will not sell newspapers.
Polls notwithstanding, I see the President in an overwhelming landslide.
