(Dems showing) Signs of cracking
Orlando Sentinel ^ | September 12, 2004 | Peter A. Brown

Kerry looked strong early in the presidential race, but a surge by Bush has exposed that the Democrats are showing signs of cracking

Presidential campaigns are three-act plays.

John Kerry won the curtain-raising, four-month period after clinching the Democratic nomination and before the political conventions.

President Bush had one of the best Augusts in political history by overtaking Kerry in the polls and won the second phase hands down.

Bush enters the final seven weeks ahead, not just in national polls but in the count that matters -- the Electoral College.

I saw him on Russert last night and he had NO fire in his belly. He gave me the impression that Kerry was done.

Isn't the timing about right, given the newest CFR laws, for the Witch King to fly in on her Nazgul and save the Dems?

(just kidding)

(maybe)

(only if I'm wrong)

It goes to show you that even the Democrats do not trust their rank-and-file to pick a candidate.

These are historic times. In the aftermath of 9/11 the world has changed and the dinosaurs do not realize that the towers coming down were their death knell.

The left through it's leadership of Daschle, Kennedy etc had a quiet period where they pretended to be on the side of Pres Bush and the USA, but that pretense did not hold up long. They were back to the old party politics and peddling their brand of soft communism before the clean up of the Towers was even completed.

These fools think that they can continue to scare old people, wave the race card, offer after school programs, cry about the uninsured and ignore terrorism as if it never happened. They fail to realize that a stumped toe doesn't matter when someone is trying to kill you.

Since 9/11 the United Nations has been shown to be both ineffective and as corrupt as the Mafia. They talk a lot saying nothing and stand by allowing genocide inside the physical nation of one after another of it's members.

They pretend to administer humanitarian programs as they get filthy rich off them.

The UN needs to fold .

The mainstream media has been demonstrated to be not only biased but corrupted as well. They assume the audience they serve is fools and continue to serve manufactured news. Writer after writer has been fired for fraudulent stories.

It has been pointed out that the emperor has no clothes on and they continue to pretend that it has not been noticed. They cry over their loss of viewer ship and why no one believes them credible any more.

They continue to ignore the blogosphere and cast aspersions on the "pajama clad, checking the credibility of their stories" and try to swat them away like gnats.

They fail to see that like the automobile swept away the horse and buggy they are about to enter into nostalgia.

The Democrat party is on the verge of irrelevance. They are stuck in a 20th century mind set but the 21st century has come. They cling to old issues, issues that belong to the industrial age when this is the information age. Issues that belong to the age of brick and mortar factories when this is the age of computers, point to point delivery and technology. They cling to an age where oceans protected and nations warred when this is the terrorism age.

They no longer have a place of relevance. You either keep up with the times or you fall behind.

I predict with a blow out by George Bush in November, that you will see the fragmentation of the Democratic party.
The coalition party has come to a place where their continued affiliation no longer benefits the membership. They promised Blacks a place at the table for 60 years but they delivered hand outs. The feminist movement is dying out, the only issue of relevance to them is abortion and legitimizing the sex trade. The environmentalists care not a whit about these other two issues.

[ (Dems showing) Signs of cracking ]

Hillary would have it no other way... Lots of serious democrat POWER has gone into torpedoing John Kerrys chances in 2004... Hillary as PREZ.. and Bubba as 1st Gentleman is the dog and pony show.. in republican NIGHTMARES... and WILL HAPPEN... unless Jesus Christ runns for Prez.. in 2008 and maybe even IF HE DID.... The only ones fooled on this point are republicans... Take it to the BANK.... the Hildebeast and the BUUBA from HELL as the almost next "renters" in your White House... with NO security deposit either.. the media are just sizing up "rubes" to see what flys and what sticks to the wall with Kerry... THEY ARE JUST GETTING PREPARED FOR THE REAllY REAllY BIG SHOW... in 2006,7, and 8... WHO will thay run against ?...

JOHN McLAIM... and you can take that to the bank TOO...
Am I a pessimist.. NOPE.. The same guys that gave us Dubya will make it happen... As the founders proffered as the solution to situation just like the one we are in, suggested (with corrupt courts) : Revolution.. Americans generally are corrupt too.. We have the gov't we deserve.. Bush sucks.. but is better than the Clintons.. and Al Gump.. Republicans will be satisfied with merely a little better than outright "EVIL"... NOW thats where we are.. regrettably.. maybe thats why women were NOT given the vote by the founders... because the "EVIL" will be supported by them generally and ALWAYS...

The second ammendment was included exactly for that purpose not for the "hunters"... for revolution.. America is feminiazed lock, stock and barrel... America is being forcably screwed and our politicians(and lobbyists) are the pimps for the most part..

VOTE for McLaim in 2008... 1st bumper sticker.. "Because hes better than outright EEEEVIL"...
