And even before that will be the Olympics. I remember how the press in 1984 was hyping Mondales's post-convention bounce. Then came the Olympics in LA. By the time they were over, Modale was back to where he had been before the convention.
Bump for a new tagline.
The polling does not give a true picture of who will actually vote and why. Thus, in Missouri the constitutional amendment to ban homosexual marriage just won by a landslide. Those who voted for the amendment are committed and will vote in November, and not for John Kerry. As to the debates: we know president bush's position on marriage. What will Kerry say? Possibly, that he has a plan but he's keeping it a secret until after the election.
They already have another excuse lined up. Bush won only because of those "rigged" touchscreen voting machines made by the "rightwing" Diebold corp. I already see that theme running quite a bit on the DUmmie site.
hmmm...really. What kind of people does this person know?
I smell a RAT.
This morning on my fifty mile commute, here in Massachusetts, I passed a couple of hundred cars. I saw THREE Kerry stickers.
One was on a rustbucket station wagon that needed a muffler, one was on an electrician's truck with a HUGE IBEW Union Sticker on the window (Probably made an offer he couldn't refuse, got a fish wrapped in a newspaper or something) and another on a nondescript midsize. Also saw a Nam Vet pickup truck with a "NOT FONDA KERRY" Sticker.
This is in Massachusetts, where he is a "Favorite Son"
Now I must point out there is no statistical validity, because this informal poll was taken on the way to WORK. After noon, the welfare clients and drug dealers will be getting out of bed, so probably that is when the Kerry stickers will appear.
"Bush will beat Kerry in a walk."
We're counting on it.
Two readily apparent facts, which the 'rats -- bless their pointed little heads -- seem genuinely incapable of grokking.
Note To Libs: keep it up, okay...? :)
Bush is a much better speaker than he was 4 yrs. ago (couldn't be much worse). I think the key is he is now much more emotionally connected with what he is saying, i.e., he is doing what he truly believes in.
Kerry is the opposite. He can't say what he is truly thinking or feeling, and therefore already restricts himself to babbling.
I think Kerry will only be a big bag of gas at the debates.
How do you characterize a man who goes to war to lie his way to unearned medals and an early discharge, comes back to immediately trash his fellow soldiers and country, attends meetings to discuss assassinations of US senators, marries wealthy widows to access their money and power, then dumps them for someone a little richer, stabs his nation in the back during wartime, lies about his snooze-time in the Senate, and completely trashes a President doing his earnest best to protect Americans from massive terrorist attacks?
If John Kerry is not a bad man, I'd advise this author not to step outside his house, since he obviously does not have the common sense necessary to tell a saint from a thieving murderer. Some people, at least 43%, are astoundingly obtuse.
"John Kerry... probably wouldn't make a bad President."
I find it hard to get past this line. Even if he bothered to show up for work, which he does not do now, he has no core other than his belief in his own entitlement.
'Bout time someone said it:
A few November 3 newspaper headlines:
FOUR MORE YEARS!
Bush 307, Kerry 231
In a surprise twist, Bush wins Wisconsin and his Re-Election
Kerry applies for job with H. J. Heinz Corp, turned down for lack of experience
This is one of my favorite lines in Presidential politics. It illustrates the "bubble that Bernard Goldberg talks about in the media and politics. To these elistists, our beliefs and values are like someone who still thinks the earth is flat."
The election outcome of this year won't be like 1984 or 1972, but it will be very good. Although, the media says Kerry is ahead or the polls are tied, President Bush will win - adding some Gore states - and the Senate and the House will go on being Republican - more GOP seats likely. Michael Moore, Howard Dean, John Kerry or John Edwards are not like most Americans. Election night will be ours.
I disagree with the statement that hanoi john isn't a bad man...he's EVIL.
In 2004 Kerry is gonna do for the Democrats, exactly what Dole did for the Republicans in 1996. The real race is gonna be in 2008.
Kerry will lose. Modern politics is more about personality than anything else.
Homo marriage and abortion is not so popular among Reagan Democrats.
This seems like a good thread to post this joke on. If not...
One sunny day in 2005 an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Kerry."
The Marine looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr. Kerry was not elected President."
The old man said, "Okay" and walked away.
The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Kerry." The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Kerry was not elected president and does not reside here."
The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.
The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same U. S. Marine, saying "I would like to go in and meet with President Kerry."
The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Kerry. I told you already that Mr. Kerry was not elected president and does not reside here. Don't you understand?"
The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it."
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow, sir"
