Live Thread: Kerry on Imus (starts 7:29 EST 09/15/04)
Imus Radio Show ^ | 09/15/04 | Don Imus

Posted on 09/15/2004 4:23:20 AM PDT by xm177e2

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.

Idiots like Imus are deluded beyond hope. He has listened to the nonstop smears and diatribes this past 20 minutes and he says "You need to take the gloves off".

GW has mislead America, period. It is the bang the drum theme of the campaign. Bush raised Medicare costs.

Doh!
No way did he say that!
North Korea just stated on Monday that they were no longer going to come to the table and discuss (extorting) nuclear options until after the US Presidential election. I thought it should have made bigger news, because it shows Kerry is using NK as a launching point, and NK is going to use us again to continue the development of nuclear weapons.

Kerry: Here's what this election is about: it's about the fundamental choices... Says Bush gave money to Enron, was against better drugs lower cost, raised the cost of medicare, Bush has opposed working people/fair trade/the middle class. Mentions healthcare, says this is what the debate will be about over the next 5 weeks (so this is what his campaign will talk about)

That was good, but overall it's a pretty lousy interview with Imus just shutting up and letting Kerry recite his talking points.

If the opponent is hitting you hard, you can't fight back with spitballs!

Kerry brings up Enron, prohibiting drug import from Canada, GWB has misled America, Medicare increase, GWB stands up for the wealthy and influential, and this will be clear. Health care insurance, poverty.

What should happen to the guards and superiors at Abu Grahib? Kerry says this problem goes up the chain of command, and wants higher ups to take the fall -- this came from WH and defense dept, Guantanimo, Afghanistan, Iraq. He hasn't named names yet.

What a slug.

The SBVT weren't formed until March this year. Threy didn't say that McCain had a black baby during the primary campaign in South Carolina. Kerry has been hiding out since Unfit for Command was published. Pack of lies my a$$
