I just keep sending $$$ to SD Republican Party, and pray for results.....

[MEG33]

Kerry is mean as a snake and does that makes him look tough?...I doubt it..He just seems defeatist and nasty.

[Carolinamom]

Nobody ever mentions that Cheney donates his deferred compensation to a hospital (sorry, forgot which one) for the treatment of wounded soldiers.

[YaYa123]

still 20 minutes or so before Meet The Presss starts here, but I'll be watching for Daschle's "laughing" as Thune speaks. That's such a lame trick during debates, to attempt to belittle your opponent, with condescending laughs and heavy sighs. You'd think democrats would have learned their lesson from Gore in 2000.

But isn't it obvious how scared Daschle must be of losing? To even appear on MTP today signals Daschle is in big trouble.

[Right_in_Virginia]

There is NOTHING uplifting about John Kerry or his message---whatever he claims it is.

[madison46]

I think GW leads in NM according to new poll on realclearpolitics

[Bahbah]

You will also notice that Daschle tries to stop Thune from being heard by talking over him.

[Right_in_Virginia]

To even appear on MTP today signals Daschle is in big trouble.

Good point.

[rodguy911]

Actually there was a solid as a rock tie between Saddam, North Korea and Lybia seeking nukes for years for anyone paying close attention.

[Carolinamom]

Kerry caller to C-Span Journal this morning complained that she was tired of "Bush's one-word answers" and "5-word sentences."

[Wait4Truth]

Thank you for the info. Seeing Thune win would be a dream come true. On Fox, McCain is busy giving aid and comfort to Kerry and making anti-Administration remarks with the help of Chris Wallace. He even says he has no idea if the documents from Rather are accurate or not. He disgusts me.

[madison46]

They are going Deaniac on us. 'OUt of Iraq', Haliburton etc

[kabar]

Bill Kristol: Kerry's message on Iraq will be: "I'll get us out".

I hope he does. The RNC can draw parallels with Kerry's pronouncements and judgement on Vietnam in 1971 and show how wrong he really was. Once Kerry starts talking about an exit strategy, the message to the enemy is that the US has lost its will and will get out if they intensify their attacks on our personnel. Not a good message.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Edwards is the one who's going to be facing Cheney with these Halliburton charges.

It'll be must see TV.

[rodguy911]

I can't watch this til 5 but it sounds like Juan is doing the broken record thing again. Has Brit had to B!tch slap him yet?

[Right_in_Virginia]

Kerry's "I'll get us out" message requires him to tell us how.

It'll go nowhere.

[mathluv]

Why is Rush the only one saying that Halliburton is the only company that does what it does, except for Schlumberger - which is French? Also, how many no-bid contracts did Halliburton get from the toon?

[YaYa123]

I hope they show Daschle hugging Bush after Bush's speech. I remember it so well, remember thinking a very fearful Daschle looked as if he almost collapsed in Bush's arms for comfort.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Brit's warming up now....Juan's ducking.

[lawdude]

"Surprised this guy lost last time."

Were it not for proven voter fraud, he would not have lost. I don't know why he didn't pursue the fraud but I believe he wanted to let johnson win (he is a true lightweight) and go after li'l tommy in '04!

Seems to be working!
