Why do you think most people are not a bright as you?
You create the impression that a brilliant person like you can see through Gore... but the ordinary dumb idiots not born with your brilliance have to watch a fight between Bush and Gore to see the truth.
What a load of condescending garbage.
When one side of a political fight descends into name calling and blame, and the other side concentrates of fixing the problems, the fixer always wins they election.. Even when the fixer can't fix the problems.
The classic case was in 1936. After 4 years of Roosevelt's New Deal the great depression was as bad or worse than it was in 1932. It is true that the Works Progress Administration had put 8 million people back to work. But 13 million more had lost their jobs during the first four years of the Roosevelt administration as well. Five million more people were out of work in 1936 than in 1932.
Republicans attacked Roosevelt around the clock for his failed policies. Roosevelt did not attack back. He proposed his left wing fixes.... even though we now know his fixes made things worse
On election day in 1936 the voters were faced with a choice. On one hand they had a Repubican candidate and party that only offered severe criticism of Roosevelt. Republicans were into hating FDR. They offered no real fixes. All Roosevelt talked about was how he was trying to fix things and how he needed people in office to help .. not hinder. The voters gave Roosevelt a landslide and total control of the house and senate.
On election day the choice was failed fixes or no fixes. The voters chose failed fixes. At least Roosevelt was talking fixes. They rejected the Republican platform that only proposed blame.
An election is very much like a horse race. It is worth nothing to be 7 lengths ahead in the back stretch only to be behind the horse that crosses the finish line first.
The object in horse races and campaigns is the same... stay close and save plenty for the home stretch.
You argue for a strategy that cost Bill Simon the governorship of California. Gray Davis was very very unpopular. Davis attacked Simon time after time. Instead of being the fixer and let Davis become the evil attacker, Simom attacked back even harder. The end result was a Davis win. Lyn Nofziger and others tried to give Simon a clue. He rejected them to follow your type of advise. Simon was certain that counter attacks was the way to go. Simple Simon did not have a clue.
Bush and Rove understand how to win elections far more than any of their critics.
The media and the Democrats have tried their best to destroy George Bush with hateful attacks. They try their best to provoke him into angry responses. They know if they can provoke counter attacks they will have a prescription that could result in his defeat. It drives them nuts that he never takes their bait.
But the world is full of people who would take the bait. They are a quite similar to a breed of fish called Suckers. They just can't help but choose the failed course. Thank goodness Dubya understands how to win... The lets trash and bash too crowd only knows how to lose.
Hmmm. Would this be the same Madonna who just cancelled a concert in Israel because she and her children were threatened by terrorists? You know, the one who claims to be learning the Kabala? Can't she just let bygones be bygones?
"I speak for more of this nation than Algore does, and I will say it on this program."
And that is absolutely true.
I hope the soldiers "subjected" to Rush's program (because Rumsfeld hasn't taken Rush off the air, thank goodness) ttake this to heart.
Al Gore was the man in charge of improving airline security systems in 1996. Why did he not reccommend locking cockpits and or arming pilots at that time? Was he dragged before the 9/11 commission for his lack of oversight?
I can't believe this guy was almost president.
Al has moved straight to "exceptionally delusional" -- just the guy to preach to MorOn.org types.
Does anyone know the procedure in NY for serving commitment papers to this lunatic?
"The man is utterly insane. We really dodged the bullet last election. The truly terrifying thought is--what if he'd won? (shudder...)"
Millions of Americans that saw the Gore speech to Moveon.org are thinking EXACTLY the same thing this morning.
The political errors being made almost daily by the Democrats is mindboggling.
ha ha!! That`s right! Come on Madonna, let`s not do anything rash, it`s best to let bygones be bygones. Yep, that`s what she said. Ms. Wisdom, "We should not do anything rash that we may later regret. It is best to let bygones be bygones." Unreal. Yes Madonna, don`t do anything rash like defending yourself with bodyguards. Just forget about that whole silly death threat thing and let your children play with those nice psychotics, after all we tried appeasement for 8 years and look how well it worked out on Sept 11th, not to mention the 10 billion other attacks during those 8 years.
Gore and his fellow-travelers are exactly the same people who refused to condemn the arch-criminal of the world, the man who turned the White House into a whorehouse, the man who lied to anyone he ever spoke to or testified to, the man who, with Gore's help, convinced the A-rabs that it was safe to attack America. These people have no room to talk.
Well said!
I wonder if the American people, that is, the REAL American people, will ever have it in them to fight a Civil War against the forces of evil and oppression represented by today's Democrat party. It seems no outrage or degradation is ever enough to rouse the normal members of our society to action against the lunatic fringe that has taken hold of our institutions. I don't look for a Civil War, just dissolution.
Here is a snap shot from the mainstream media/talk radio interface.

Al Gore is calling Limbaugh 'devisive' at a MoveOn.org rally that pictured President Bush as Hitler.
...we won't hold our breath waiting for Charles Rangle or Al Sharpton to come to Condi Rice's defense to Al Gore demanding she step down....once again, the socialist rats prove they are not an inclusive party.
Rush talks about winning on his show,now this is his chance to step up and show us.Not dumping on Iman Allie but putting his resource into get W re-elected.Total focus,no vacations,Rush this your moment don't waste it.
It isn't only Madonna and her babies that are going to get their throats slits. I look at all the women, blacks, lesbians, Gay men, Jews, Christians, etc. that are supporting John Kerry and the "traitor" Democrat Party. These fools are too stupid to realize they are dead meat. Bin Laden and his boys are gonna have a ball killing all these folks! Yep, go ahead and vote for Kerry and the "traitor" Democrat Party, and you will be signing your own death warrant!!! Fools!!!!
