[The Great Yazoo]

As usual.

Ironic though, is this statement. The media have made such a bugaboo about "negative" statements or "attacks" that you might think political campaigns are supposed to be nothing but happy talk.

Such "bugaboo" seems awfully one-sided to me. When President Bush is the target of the "negative statement" or "attack," it's the headline story on 60 Minutes.

When Kerry's record as a senator is critically reviewed, the media sees "anger."

I say screw the media, they aren't gonna vote for President Bush anyway.

It's time to stow the spitballs and bring out the hardballs.

Kerry's record is so bad, it'll fall on it's own!

Kerry's record is so bad, it'll fall on it's own!

That is why the Bush campaign has not been at all concerned about the "lead in the polls" sKerry has had up to this time. It was certain that when the bulk of Americans started to pay attention to who they really want to be President - in Sep/Oct - that they would not be excited about the most liberal member of the Senate in that position. No reason to expend ammunition until people are actually in range.
