Bush is coming out swinging in August. His job will be to frame the debate. Kerry's speech tonight is said to be devoid of specifics and, in general, thematic. If his is a general appeal to replace Bush, the latter can counter with specific plans and arguments in a positive matter about what he will do for America.
Bush is biding his time. If he has a speech scheduled for tomorrow, you know he has waited to strike until just the right moment.
Be Seeing You,
