this is now John Kerry's contest to lose.

Lose faster and more quietly. Lose you will, toiletman! In spite of your acolytes in the commie press saying otherwise.

this is the current talking point..all a riff on Sabato's comments a few days ago..

Forget the fact that that we still can't find a single American who voted for Al Gore in 2000 who is planning to vote for George Bush in 2004.

Ed Koch, moron.

If this city liberal is voting for Bush, I can guarantee that more in middle America are going to.

This is baaaaad.

Typical 'rat media brown-nozed reporting.

But even with all the media help, they have left an "out" for themselves, "Kerry lost it himself".

They are correct. It is Kerry's race to lose, which he will, but it won't be the fault of the media lapdogs. They are doing everything in their power to help him win.

Blessings, Bobo

All those authors writing about all those issues and there wasn't one single mention of Kerry being a Viet Nam war hero. Is the Viet Nam war finally over?

Forget the fact that that we still can't find a single American who voted for Al Gore in 2000 who is planning to vote for George Bush in 2004. (If you are that elusive figure, e-mail us and tell us who you are and why: politicalunit@abcnews.com.)

Ahem.
And I know several others.
Maybe, like me, they aren't watching your crappy network.

Here's where their claim comes from:

Considering they quote Rush on that "notebook", one would think they'd be more widely read:
