Democratic Presidential candidate John Kerry will be the guest at 7:29 am eastern. Senator Kerry has a lot of convincing to do, beginning with the I-Man.. whose support has waned in recent weeks. Despite several polls to the contrary, both campaigns acknowledge a 5-6 point lead for President Bush. Many analysts say it's a result of a post convention bump, and the GOP's ability to make the focus of the election national security and Kerry's record. The challenge for the Senator is to now put the emphasis back on domestic issues while separating the War in Iraq from the War on Terrorism. Can he turn the tide while continuing to play defense? Can he turn all the anti-Bush sentiment into a spark that ignites the Democratic base? Does he think it will ultimately come down to the debates? Will he finally be able to clearly frame his views on Iraq? Is John Edwards the VP candidate he thought he would be? John Kerry has his work cut out.. but, he can take a big step forward on Wednesday morning when/IF he answers the tough questions from IMUS.

Kerry is blaming Bush for the mess in Iraq and says Bush is making the problems permanent.
Kerry says the European Community has not lived up to their obligations. He blames our allies for not contributing enough (after insulting what they have contributed!)
His plan is to be a "new president" (aka: vote for me cuz I'm not Bush)
Global Kerry plan: Bring people to the table
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooring...
Imus isn't even asking good questions.
In short, the plan is elect me and I'll do a better job.
He claims the President is dis-honest... again! The President's plan is being executed. He's not going to tell the enemy YOU DOPE
I am surprised he hasn't put Imus to sleep yet.
Kerry says "Don't ask me what the plan is, you should be asking the President what his plan is" lol
Imus says "We're asking you becuase you are running for president."
I think most Kerry supportes would agree - he is just not inspirational.
Did he say that? The same words bubba used coming out of church a few Sunday's ago. He's STEALING bubba's lines!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bush '41 and Cheney recommended the military cuts.
LOL is right! And Imus lets him off the hook.
Bernie, hope you have that scanning electron proctoscope on stand-by...
So, Kerry thinks we should have waited and made "more friends"? I'd like to hear him explain why he believes Iran and Libya would sit back and allow Iraq to be democratized and wouldn't have provided assistance and nuclear materials to hold us off. He has a very childish view of the world, or he is just a liar - or both.
Imus pressing him for names of people who he would appoint.
I don't think so (I didn't hear it). I just heard "misrepresented" (which is to say, deliberately gave the wrong impression, which is basically bearing false witness)
Somebody's airbrush was very busy.
