"A Bush comback"??? I personally don't believe the LIEberals & their media cohorts in their constant doom predictions of the President's slide. I think it's wishful thinking..........however, it should motivate all sane, America loving people to vote and make sure Bush wins by a gigantic landslide.

And isn't this good news about Daschle? I bet if they put that book out on the net for sale, they'll make tons of money!

I seriously doubt that the first "big spurt" Bill Clinton enjoyed didn't come until after the 1992 Democratic Convention.

"saying that the Democratic National Convention, beginning in Boston July 26, will introduce him to voters at large.....again."

We're getting more candidate roll outs with kerry than we did with gore. At least with gore they were different. We got gore-the-statesman, gore-the-passionate, gore-the-alpha-male. With current guy, we get kerry-the-same, every time. His campaign would probably be better if maybe he was a viet nam vet or something.

"The Democrats complain Kerry's campaign has done a poor job of presenting the candidate to the public."

Actually they've done an excellent job. They've kept him in the closet.

I think all the pollsters are going to be embarassed in the end. Bush will trounce Kerry and it won't even be close. Any longtime political junkie can see that from a mile away. At least that is what I keep telling myself....then again, 49 million voted for Gore.

re: Seeking to defeat Senate Democratic Leader Thomas Daschle for re-election in South Dakota, conservative publisher Jameson Campaigne of Ottawa, Ill., is soliciting funds to mail a book called "The Other Side of Tom Daschle" to every one of 290,000 households in his state.
The book is written by lawyer Talmage Ekanger, a Federalist Society member from Milbank, S.D., and is published by Campaigne's Green Hill Publishers.

Does anyone have a link for this? I could not find one via Google. Seems like an excellent project, and a natural for online PayPal contributions.

A footnote: There is no clear favorite of the party's right wing to succeed George W. Bush. Support for Colorado Gov. Bill Owens declined after his divorce. Florida Gov. Jeb Bush would be favored, were it not for political apprehension about a Bush dynasty.

Jeb the Rockafeller RINO green-republican land grabber is "right wing" now? If so, the GOP is in worse shape than I though.

After having him as my governor, I pray to God he never gets anywhere near the presidency.

Yeah, only Kennedys, Cuomos and Clintons are allowed to have dynasties.

Speaking of which, it's amazing that the Demos are allowing Chappaqudick Ted to take over their convention. Would you buy a used car from this man??

A "book" about Daschle. Why don't we call this what it really is, a propaganda hit piece (sarcasm). The left would get everyone so spun up about this that the political impact may be lost. There is a double standard(I don't need to tell you) Nader gets scrutinized, coerced, and bullied not to run while Perot gets a place on the stage.

This is the 14th Presidential election in my lifetime. What I've noticed is while Americans are reasonably comfortable at home, any president can move the polls between 5 and 10 points any time he wants simply by giving a speech. Some presidents squander that kind of "good will." Johnson and Nixon did. Carter lost that ability due to events such as the economy that he thought he could control and couldn't. Plus Carter gave speeches telling Americans we were on the decline, rather pessimistic. Even so, the polls showed a dead heat one week prior to the election in 1980.

I don't think Bush has squandered that "good will," and I think he is an effective campaigner. He did a decent job campaigning to keep control of the Senate in the mid-term elections.

Since a poll swing of about 4 points translates into a landslide, I must conclude the job is Bush's if he wants it.

The President's campaign team should incorporate a new tactic -- take every opportunity to portray the true face of the demon party to America -- that face would be the slimey, scummy, putrid mug of one Michael Moore. Make that ugly piece of human refuse the poster child for the demoncratic party. Take a tactical assault and turn it into an advantage.

Good Dashle strategy.

But I am waiting for Congress/FEC/SCOTUS to tell us that it is a violation of election laws to publish a book critical of a candidate within 60 of an election.

About Mitt "Saturday Night Special" Romney

In a move that shocked many in the room, Lieutenant Governor Kerry Healey began the ceremony by hailing this bill as “…an important victory against crime.” The Lieutenant Governor went on to say, “The most important job of state government is ensuring public safety.  Governor Romney and I are determined to do whatever it takes to stop the flood of dangerous weapons into our cities and towns and to make Massachusetts safer for law-abiding citizens.

After the Lieutenant Governor’s shocking and insulting comments, she then gave John Rosenthal, of Stop Handgun Violence, an opportunity to address the press corps. Of course, Mr. Rosenthal took the opportunity to put his spin on the bill as “gun safety legislation.” During his remarks he stated. “We’re not taking guns away from anyone except assault weapons and cheaply made Saturday Night Specials.” Romney officials also gave Mr. Rosenthal an entire paragraph in their official press release, while GOAL was not even mentioned.

After the “stage” had been set, Senator Stephen Brewer and Representative George Peterson were allowed to say a few words. These longtime friends of gun owners spoke on the importance of the reforms the bill made. “This change will go a long way toward fixing the flaws created by the 1998 law,” said Representative George Peterson.

Governor Romney then took the podium to make a few remarks before signing the bill. Although the Governor did make mention of being a “sportsman” and the reforms in the bill that would help other sportsmen, he spun the bill as a ban.

“Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts ,” Romney said. “These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense.  They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people.

I just thought I would share a little good news with you. Last night my democrat lesbian sister in law said she is going to vote for G.W. Bush this year and so is her special friend. Last time, they voted for Gore.

I find it quite hilarious Robert "The Brother Grimm" Novak, still retains any credibility among the readers of the punditry class. Here's a clue, THERE WAS NO WHITE HOUSE SOURCE RE: WILSON/PLAME, IT WAS A POLITICAL SNIPE HUNT.
If you'll excuse the expression, Novak has a hard-on for Bush going back to a problem he had with 41. He has helped to orchestrate a scandal that hits at the heart of the W's #1 political character trait, his integrity.
Unlike President Clinton, the charges made against President Bush are in regard to actions taken by someone else in his administration, not him. It's "Cheney's Halliburton" or "Rove's strategy". Even when they say these events occured on his watch, they aren't attacking him personally, they are attacking his lack of control. The Democrats know how popular this president is.
Now it's time for the calling in of debts, returning payments, engaging in blackmail and the threat of opening of files. Novak, Gergen(?), Will, are just the hump of the camel. I wouldn't be too surprised if Hagel and Graham don't come out for Senator Kerry.
Mark my words.

That book is a great idea, but they shouldn't send it to every last household. They'll hit a lot of radical leftists, and it will just increase their turnout.

Republican talk on Capitol Hill in Washington about presidential prospects for 2008 has turned to Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as a conservative who was moderate enough to win in a liberal Democratic state.>>>

Translation:

Democratic (and RINO) wishful thinking on Capitol Hill in Washington about presidential prospects for 2008 has turned to Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as a conservative who is happy to advocate the continued butchery of small children in utero.
