Both Kerry and Edwards will suffer a harsh loss in the debates. This administration has shown a proven track record of focus; focus like a laser beam. Kerry out of the chute has shown flip flop. Edwards is now coming to full stage and he's not gonna fair well either.
Try as they may, the democratic ticket cannot deflect one thing, we are electing a man to the Presidency. As of current, Kerry has already demonstrated he is not a man of his own convictions (witness abortion). I'm sure someone can point out a fault in Bush, but by and large, he's done what he said he would do. And he has handled many things that were never disclosed (China and our EP-3, 9/11, freeing two countries from radical islam; -='cuase they were dumb enough to screw with us=-) pretty damn well.
Now forgive me if I am wrong, but we have Kerry, who likes to fasion himself as a war hero AND a premier war activist, and we have Edwards, a do nothing Senator who apparently channels baby's thoughts; yet can't seem to recall an aborted fetus' cry for help. On the other end, we have Bush who, albeit, bought into the "new tone" a bit much, crushed an enemy, liberated two countries, lowered MY TAXES, churned out jobs and a recovering economy. Cheney? Please, this guy will dance circles around 95% on this board, not to mention 99.9% of all Internet attendee's.
Yeah, this choice is tough.
My opinion only....
"Defend America
Defeat Bush"
Now, why do I find it funny? That fully defined the democrats; "Anyone but Bush"..In other words, Anything but a strategy or idea that is against my marxist own". The lemming that drove that car (by admission of his/her bumper sticker) could care less about the Dem candidates. And hence we have Kerry/Edwards. It's all about "getting that man out of office who we disagree with..."
Pathetic if you ask me.
