Actually, you are correct - I live in the area and Bush headquarters is populated with starry-eyed twenty-somethings hoping that they will be the next George Stephanopolous. Life experiences - zero. The "adults" Mehlman, Schmidt, et al. are just a few years farther along and don't know anything about the world outside politics. They think purely in terms of what the inside-the-beltway culture believes. They don't listen to you, Freepers, but to the nattering nabobs (sorry Spiro) on cable talk shows and the media, to get their next clue as to where to drop another 40 million $$.
You remember George Bush's eternal moment, the bullhorn call to arms at the World Trade ruins; well, these guys have let the Democrats veto its use - "exploiting the tragedy" Dems and the media say - so the Bush amateurs meekly come up with some vanilla message that nobody listens to. The bumber stickers are another example - with a quarter BILLION dollars in funds, they can't give them out, not realizing free advertising those things give. We are in Bush country where I live, but even here the Kerry bumber stickers outnumber Bush ones 10 to 1.
Freepers should stop living in a fantasy world (like the town of Perfect in those TV ads). Rather than attack the messenger who is pointing out that the campaign kings are wearing no clothes, they should be deluging the Bush-Cheney 04 campaign offices and the RNC to get off their smug butts or let someone else take over. Remember, all those non-producers in the campaign will be in cushy K St. think tank jobs the next four years, while you endure President John Kerry. Come after people like me if you want, but I am not the one shaping events that will result in John Kerry's victory.
You should be mad as hell, and not taking it anymore, rather than dreaming on that our cause is so pure that George Bush is ordained by God to win. God doesn't care - and apparently the campaign geniuses in Arlington don't very much either.
