This is going to be a good convention. We believe in this President and in his policies. His passion and conviction just fires up the base. That's sorely lacking on the other side. Can't wait to see that clown put away next month. Let's roll!
I expect Bush to get a clear bounce out of the convention. When the president speaks clearly and plainly to the American people his approval numbers allways go up.
I didn't watch any part of the dem convention, but I did pay attention to the press coverage. What impresses me is that I have no idea what Kerry said in his acceptance speech. I believe he said something like "reporting for duty", but that is the only thing that has been reported. And that would not have been reported except for the SwiftVets.
What DID he say?
Don't fall for it.
Sen. John Kerry orchestrated the smooth and unified convention he needed ...As smooth and unified as the LA riots or Seattle protests. Did the writer not hear the rants of Sharpton or the mutterings of Franks or even Edwards as Edwards insisted there were two Americas after Obama and Clinton insisted there was but one?
He might get a bounce but it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he didn't. Depending on the poll, a HUGE percentage of likely voters have already made up their minds. There aren't that many fence-sitters to get a bounce with.
The Hill has an agenda. They will play the same game we played prior to the dem convention. Suggesting that Kerry would get a double digit bounce. So now they are playing the same game with us.
How much do you want to bet that RNC protests will garner as much coverage as the convention itself?
Can anyone tell me when the trial of that monster saddam hussein will start?
The pundits like to say the electorate is evenly divided, thats why hanoi john got no bounce. Not true. 41% of Americans call themselves conservative, 19% liberal. With the race basically in a dead heat at 45% or so, all, this means that hanoi john already has 26 of the independent minded points, Bush only has 4. hanoi john has topped out, President George W. Bush has plenty of room for a bounce. I predict at least a 10 point Bounce for Bush.
This is the kind of talk that establishes the Swift Vets their right to speak out, too.
We got a healthy dose of Sept. 10th at the dem conventionl. Reality will set in if the GOP gives a Sept. 11th convention. Fighting and defeating terrorists in the last 3 years is much better than Vietnam service over 30 years ago.
