Agreed as to order of best to worse and likely impact. Then again, I don't think we'll see the Bush girls prominently featured again by the campaign any time soon.

Russert will then go on TV and say that in a 21st century campaign, there is no evidence that debates matter.

In a 21st century campaign, there is no evidence that Tim Russert matters.

LOL. He really does seem to have become little more than en echo chamber for conventional MSM wisdom.

The elites are just setting up the public for the great comeback for Kerry.

Their alternate universe is being written as we type!

"exploit W's recent statement on the winnability of the war."

This is great, great news. It shows that Kerry STILL hasn't figured this campaign out. ANY, I repeat, ANY sentence that puts "George Bush" and "War on Terror" together---even in an attack---merely reinforces that there is a War on Terror and that Bush is doing something about it!. I love it, but I'm amazed that there doesn't appear to be a Dem in the entire country who can tell Kerry to SHUT UP about a) the Swiftboats and b) the War on Terror. He CANNOT WIN EITHER OF THOSE ISSUES

This is going to be a massacre! The argument now is to turn out for Bush in Texas, so he'll win the US popular vote too! He'll have BIG coat tails here!

Excellent point. W's statement on winnability would only hurt him if people thought for a second that he wasn't resolute on fighting terror or that Kerry was tougher than W on terror. Since no one believes that, raising the issue, as you point out, only hurts Kerry.

If Kerry were smart, he would stop responding to the swift veterans, etc., and focus almost entirely on his plans for the economy, health care, etc. Boring, but his only chance of changing the subject to an area where the polls show he's competitive.

Well, Kerrey is one of those who knows that there were nuggets of truth in Kerry's 1971 testimony. Knows.

Thanks, Uncle Dave. My pleasure as always.
By the way, did you catch the other thread about Katie trashing Michael Moore? It was absolutely amazing:

Yes, I read that. Very amusing.

Steph obviously has excellent sources inside the Kerry campaign, and the picture clearly emerges of a desperate, angry Kerry and a campaign in tatters, sensing that it's going down.

Really? I never watch Steph so I have no idea what he's been saying.
Cool. The thought of Kerry's campaign going down in flames makes me happy.

Interesting. I hadn't made that connection yet.

I'm not a regular Steph watcher either since, as you know, I spend most of my morning show TV time lurking at the Today Show.

But as a former top Clinton administration official, I think it's fair to assume that he has many good friends and contacts within the Kerry campaign and can speak quite authoritatively about what is happening chez Kerry.

True enough. I was beginning to get worried about the election but the news lately seems to be breaking our way for a change. This plus your excellent catch on Katie and Michael Moore this morning, and I swear we've entered the Twilight Zone.

Finally, back at Today, Katie interviewed former Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey. Aside: with his faux-Caesar hair cut and suntan, Kerrey is looking more and more like a third-rate Frank Sinatra impersonator. I was waiting for him to burst into "Strangers in the Night."

LOL!

Thanks for your daily Today write-ups. This one was a real pleasure to read, since the tides have turned and the rats are on the run to find some traction.

Thank you, HW. It really is my pleasure, particularly on a day like today. Can hardly wait for tomorrow, as we see the liberal co-hosts with the rubble of the Kerry campaign in ruins around their ears.

Arnold's speech was pretty good for a RINO.

Arnold's speech promoted more conservative Republican principles than we've heard for a long time...NOT the speech of a RHINO at all.

I agree, he probably swithed more Dems to the Pub's side than any other speaker so far. If I weren't sure of who to vote for this year, I would have been heavily swayed by Ahhnold.
