I'm worried that, because of McCain-Feingold, the "back loaded" strategy might not be effective. Certainly the partisan media will be damaging to Bush in the last weeks of the election, and I think the undecided voters could be swayed.

To combat this, I think it's important to get as much truth about Kerry out on the playing field right after his acceptance. I'm encouraged that the Swifties look like they're going to upgrade their attack, and also that it looks like this movie the Dems are going to show will turn out to be fraudulent.

If the real Kerry is known before advertising limitations kick in, the public will not forget. Kerry is too reprehensible. He may be the Republican's greatest strength!

How? They've been launching every salvo they can at Bush for 4 years. According to them, the only difference between Bush and Hitler is that Hitler cared about the environment. What on earth could they possibly say about Bush over the next few weeks that they haven't said already? What "independent" voter is going to emerge from a lead mine and say "Golly. I didn't realize there were questions about Bush's service in the National Guard, and the outing of Joe Wilson's wife is certainly troubling." If anyone has shot their wad too soon, it's Kerry and the partisan press.
