It's hard to run a campaign when you have no vision, no platform and no pro-U.S. record to run on.

Bingo! The problem with the Kerry campaign, is Kerry has already gotten in gear. This is as good as he gets, folks. You don't take a Yugo into the Indianapolis 500 unless you know a heckuva shortcut.

Clinton will dominate the news for the next few days, maybe longer. First the press, than the talk shows. Can help or hurt Skerry. Most think he does not want skerry to win because it helps lil ms hillary. if thats true, than he can talk till the end of the election.

He stripped his gears and his interchangeable ribbon- medals a long time ago after his return from Vietnam. He's a downhill racer now with no brakes and riding on two flat tires named Tereza and John of Breck.

Senator Kerry should not be reluctant to contrast his war record to the lack of same of the tough-talking White House chicken hawks.

What a clever new approach. Go for it, Jean-François!

The SBVFT are running a count of the number of days it's
been before Kerry answered live questions from a reporter
(other than that Comedy Channel fiction).

The Clinton recovery (or funeral) will give Kerry cover
to stay under cover for a while longer.

FBI FILES ON KERRY'S ANTI-WAR GROUP

Go here FBI FILES and look at pages 21 through 25. You will see that Kerry's Vietnam Vets Against The War had DIRECT communicaitons with the North Vietnamese Communists and coordinated Anti-War activities in the United States.

This is IN ADDITION to Kerry's trips to Paris to meet with North Vietnamese and Viet Cong Officials to discuss America's surrender where Kerry brought back the Communist's talking points and spewed them on American TV.

Kerry is a TRAITOR to America.

This is exactly what is meant when we say that the left-wing bias of the press is not helping the Democrats.

What a silly, shallow, pretensious column. What an outstanding exemplar of absolute, rock-bottom pseudo-intellectual mediocrity all dressed up, like someone's crack-whore sister who gets gussied up for the wedding. Make-up applied with a trowel. Overpowering cologne to cover up who knows what.

If this is what Kerry's got in his intellectual braintrust, we've got nothing to fear. These people have become their own victims. They've conned themselves. Really pathetic.

Exactly! AND...

How can the man convince honest, thinking people that he SUDDENLY is a different man than he's shown us to be during this "campaign" he's been slopping through so far?

Fools and liars, of course, are not already in his camp.

Here's another prediction -- Mr. Bush and the organizations that provide him cover will spend much of the next two months bashing Mr. Kerry for his actions protesting the war upon his return from Vietnam.

I'll take that bet. The Bush campaign is not interested in discussing Kerry's Vietnam past, but has been focused very well oon the future, and Kerry's Senate record and stated positions, as they relate to the war on terror and domestic issues.

Senator Kerry should not be reluctant to contrast his war record to the lack of same of the tough-talking White House chicken hawks. Unlike them, he has seen war up close, and it inspired him to protest a terrible war in Vietnam that was killing and crippling U.S. soldiers and tearing America apart. Mr. Kerry's service in Vietnam was noble, and so was his later opposition to the war. He knew what he was talking about and had the courage to do so.

BWahahahahah. And he gets yet another piece of unsolicited advice to take another poke at the tar baby.

It's also hard to run a losing campaign when your wife holds the purse strings and has already jumped ship.

Senator Kerry is an underdog against a well-funded incumbent whose minions, such as the Swift Boat Veterans, will say and do anything to keep the administration in power.

The SwiftVets are NOT pro-Bush. They are anti-Kerry. This is part of the "big lie" repetition.

What a silly, shallow, pretensious column.

The Berkshire Eagle is the post-graduate version of the Amherst College Newspaper, The Amherst Student. (Clever name, huh?) It's a place for delicate, ooh soo sensitive trustifarians to commune their undying solidarity with the masses from the lofty heights of central New England. Just don't touch my granola. The sound box of the Ben and Jerry's Bike Path Left.

Themore contrasting of his war record he does, the more deserved Swiftvets' attacks Gigolo John will get.

His numbers go up when he is silent and out of the picture.
