Poor showing for Kerry supporters. Lots of empty space in main area. And they advertized free tickets in all sorts of places including a local Beauty Parlor.

Good show for Bush supporters. They had to bring up a big sign to hide the Bush supporters from the TV cameras. They did that right after the Bush supporters all started chanting "Flip Flop" and waving their arms. I am very encouraged.

He's desperate...

His ship is sinking and he's too scared to go down with his ship.

[Merry]

Thank you for going there and telling us what went on. We couldn't tell by the tv cameras how many people were there.

[jwalsh07]

Nice report kid. And nice work.

[Howlin]

Tell all!

When did this "rally" first come to light?

Were they union people?

Did you think Kerry was slurring his words?

How many people?

[socal_parrot]

I watched it, until everyone buy CSPAN 2 bailed on it. He started with about 5 minutes of new stuff and then lapsed into his standard stump speech.


ZZZZZZ.....

[Boundless]

Hey, this was supposed to be the beginning of Kerry's
Tet Offensive against Bush.

What went wrong?

Coverage of this in the Pravda Press should be fun.

[elhombrelibre]

Could you tell if he was drunk. We've had quite a debate here about that. Also, did he mention he was in Vietnam?

[rineaux]

no kidding, did they hand out beer or cash to get the people to participate?

did not see or hear much enthusiasm.

[SGCOS]

What was he drinking?

Hey, all Freepers and others ("Lurkers") How about if we all mail a pair or more of real Flip Floppers to John sKerry???

[FairOpinion]

Here is Kerry's speech.

He said some important things, digging himself in deeper.


Kerry's Midnight speech (Domestic "priorities" are more important than lives of our troops)

I heard some yelling in the background and saw Kerry react momentarily, as if he was desperately trying to stay on his little white card notes, like he'd been jabbed...and then quickly bash Bush, turn a card over and go onto another point. The shouts were unnerving him and his tiny band of supporters. Kerry paced back and forth, babbbling, like he was on the Titanic. Edwards stood behind him. You could see his face flash by every once in a while as Kerry raced around. Edwards wore a look of helplessness. Or do I mean hopeless.

[gopwhit]

Wow that's great that you went!!! We want any details possible! Did he actually talk to anyone who came to see him or did he just stagger in and out?

Road to Nowhere
(Parody of Talking Heads "Road to Nowhere")
by Kevin L. Kitchens

The campaign's all but over, but you don't know what went wrong.
Your candidate is a loser, why'd you'd keep him for so long?
Cause you're blind to the real truth, don't confuse you with the facts.
Liberalism is dying, and it won't get back on track.

Yeah!

You're on the road to nowhere, Kerry's your guide.
You'll take the ride to nowhere, Teddy can drive.
Hillary's mad this morning, and so what's new?
You had a goal to socialize, and you failed, and you failed.

You're plummeting into nowhere, John's plans are dead.
Freefalling into nowhere, watch the road Ted!
Maybe '08 can save you, Hillary's turn.
If the public would only shut their eyes, believe your lies, believe your lies.

You're on the road to nowhere!
You're on the road to nowhere!
You're on the road to nowhere!

There's a line, it's very fine, your decency drops all the time, but it's alright, Hillary it's alright.
The White House is far away, it's getting farther day by day, but it's alright, Hillary it's alright.
Well we're sure you've got a plot, like your heart it's full of rot, but it's alright, Hillary it's alright.
Well we know just what you'll do, America you'll try to screw, but it's alright, Hillary it's alright.

You're on the road to nowhere!
You're on the road to nowhere!
You're on the road to nowhere!
You're on the road to nowhere!

They keep repeating about his service in Vietnam and he got a shrapnel in his rear end until everybody in the world knows about John Kerry.

Thanks for that info :0)

[tiki]

People were saying he looked drunk or stoned and slurred his speech and didn't make sense. What was your take?

Kerry-Edwards Show in Springfield

[doug from upland]

It has been memorialized in song --- CLICK.

[thelastvirgil]

Thanks for the report. Was the candidate as detached in person as it seemed on my TV? He came across on my screen as really tired and haggard. Drunk, maybe? Hungover? Amphetamines?
