Press Sec. Katie- egads! Now there's a frightening thought.
I listened to Imus and Brokow swoon over Kerry's speech this morning...Brokow spoke of his mom calling friends in N(or S)Dakota to discuss Terezaah's speech..so involved is she in this thrilling dem convention..Brokow is a news anchor and his dem bias was in full bloom.
...Kerry's delivery was much better than normal(in the clips I've heard)..His lip licking, droning delivery leaves me running for the remote normally...His hypocrisy about Vietnam and the current military is sickening!..Hold your children close if this jerk wins...
God bless America..give us four more years!
Bush/ Cheney ...04
Hey! Thanks! I couldn't figure out what was meant...especially the turtle on the fence post thing.
As far as Hillary replacing Kerry, as Lautenberg replaced the disgraced Torricelli, I certainly HOPE it's too late!
He is still a registered Freeper, so we can always hope.
Good point. Perot exited suddenly and virtually without explanation on, what, the eve of Clinton's acceptance speech?
And then later, when Clinton's numbers started flagging, Perot reentered the race. The Clinton admin. is a product of Ross Perot.
The job here for the democratic insiders is simple...put Kerry within 3 states of winning, and simply burn up cash reserve. Hillery has all insiders on her payroll, and this situation is hers to lose. My guess is that Hillery wants Mrs Kerry on good terms and will ensure John comes close. Hillery needs the big cash in 2008. This is the game afoot.
The reason things could be changed in New Jersey concerning that race is because of the election rules in that state.
It doesn't work in most states. Kerry, in accepting the nomination, has sealed his fate to being the candidate on the ballot across the country.
Hillary, if she really truely is going to sabotage Kerry for her run in 2008, wouldn't be acting quite yet anyways. She's shrewd enough to realize the last three weeks of the campaign is when Kerry should be put out to pasture, like how Gore's people tried to do to GWB by the last minute DUI story.
However, people are starting to see the fact Kerry's peaked, and it is only downhill from here. Assuming 8 pct of undecideds like Zogby claims, Kerry's support will erode 4 points and Bush will be up 6 points after the Republican convention, I predict.
From your lips to Zogby's ears.
The reason they hate John Ashcroft is not because of the Patriot Act. It is because he is a committed Christian from Missouri who does not pay Democrat tribute money, endorse homosexuality, lobby for abortiion, etc.
He also did not have a Waco experience as did Janet Reno to bond him with the liberals who hate people that own weapons.
I'm sure some of the issues you mentioned also figure into the left's hatred of Ashcroft. But my sense is that most of their hatred stems from their view of him as the Bush administration official most closely associated with the Patriot Act.
I have asked Ashcroft haters why and they all babble about abortion and judges and Roe vs Wade. I think they hate him because he is the son of a Pentecostal preacher,,it is religious hatred pure and simple in my opinion.
GW has let the military win this war and are pretty much there. The operation is in mostly mop up mode and as the casualties decrease the overall victory will become more apparent.
His speech was well delivered, but was all style and no substance. His only bounce of the weak is going to be at Fenway Park.
Pray for W and The Troops
