Steyn is really unmatched. By November it will be a full house versus a couple of jokers. We should get the audio clip from Edwards' statement soon after he was chosen about if you want to know about John Kerry's leadership just spend a few moments with those who served with him and juxtapose it with the statements of the Swift Boat Vets.
And don't forget it! It's the bottom line.
You know I can be found
Sittin' home all alone
If you can't come around
At least please telephone
Don't be cruel to a heart that's trueBaby, if I made you mad
Somethin' I might have said
Please forget my past
The future looks bright ahead
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Baby it's still you I'm thinking of
Your evidence is anecdotal, of course. But it contains the rational basis for a trend.
If Kerry hasn't recovered a pulse by the end of September, this could be a rout.

The really funny thing is that he probably won't say "I served in Vietnam"
"Mr. Hunt and many others are going to be scrambling for the wastebaskets (a la Carville in election 2002) on Nov. 3rd!"
They may be in the market for 'Jim Jones Kool-Aid'.
Yes, and when democRATs are shreiking and squealing, we know things are going well. Their "moods" are kinda like a built in barometer.
"What's great about Bush's humor is that it is often self-deprecating and it isn't mean-spirited or bitter. He can loosen up and laugh at himself a little, unlike the stiff-as-a-board Kerry who walks around like his underwear is three sizes too small."
Maybe, Kerry is battery operated and has his batteries up his ***!
His voting record, and in some cases, lack of it, will never see the light of day with the alphabet networks and other MSM. That's how they keep the rank and file in line....deny them access to information and spoon feed them just enough of what you want them to believe to make them feel like they know all they need to know, then get them to the polls quick.
I like a little of both. :)
I spent some time talking to liberals at work last week and most are growing very disillusioned with Kerry.
All Libs I have spoken to are driven by pure emotion, and a utopian view of what the world could be if it were up to them.
Yep. These were university faculty members I was talking with. They can see the dems have picked a loser and wish that Hillary was running.
There is NO WAY that Nader collects only 1% if the President wins that handily. If that is the inevitable result, many of the Deaniacs and Kuchies will vote Nader to protest the sKerry wing of the party.
He not only hits home runs, he manages to crank out an unbelievable number of pieces each week, along with movie reviews.
Which is why we slip mentions of it into calls to local talk radio, even libs listen to it, judging by the call ins here in Memphis. I sneak in about the military cuts. It's quite evident he loaths the military by all the cuts, votes against pay raises, health care for Vets, etc.
For months here, there have been those who lamented that "Bush isn't fighting back!". He hasn't had to...he's been holding trump cards the entire time.
Look at it...the ONLY thing Mr. Heinz-Kerry had to run on to appeal to the entire nation (as opposed to his usual constituency of Mass. leftists) was his service in Viet Nam (which he virtually ignored in all his previous campaigns, and in fact denounced). Now, enter the Swifties, who proceed to blast huge holes in his raft just after his failure to attain a convention bounce.
Next, the Swifties will concentrate on his anti-war efforts...efforts which the public at large will find quite unacceptable.
This leaves the President and the party to concentrate on THEIR convention, which will offer a vision for the future, forward-looking plans, and solid patriotism. This will be played out against a backdrop (conviniently provided by our enemies) of protests calling to mind in voters the EXACT SAME types of activities that Mr. H-K came to prominence on.
That still leaves two months to examine, in detail, Mr. H-k's Senate non-record. Which the Republicans WILL, rest assured.
Oh, and let's not forget the two or three percolating bombs Mr. H-k will still have to deal with. Let me just say this: His records are maintained by the Pentagon...the SAME organization that he's voted to cut the budget of at every opportunity. Think about it.
There's yet ANOTHER "medal eruption" brewing, one that caused another man years ago to take his own life rather than deal with. Stay tuned.
Mr. H-K will come to regret trying to play against a pro.
