So GWB did not dominate the first debate, the sky is not falling. It seems that Freerepublic is filled these days with whiney little weenies that want to do nothing but complain. Would you people please toughen up!
Elections are hard work and you can't expect the Swift Boat Veterans For Truth to carry your water all the way to November. Live with it and do something postitive to help, instead of bitching about it.
Some of these same namby-pambys are the people that complain the most about "spineless republicans" that let the dems roll them over. When the going gets tough, the tough do not roll over on their President and complain about his weaknesses.
How about demonstrating the power of the people and our new medium, The Internet, to make a difference!
Amen!
Hooray! Well said! Cheney will put away the ambulance chaser tonight. Paula Zhan last night said "according to a poll (internet based so it's worthless) only 18% said the VP debate could change thier minds." Bulls$$$! If Dick will hammer the little reptile on Iraq and the lack of policy of his boss, sKerry, he'll leave it open for Bush on Friday. STOP THE HAND WRINGING!!
My feelings exactly. From what I have seen since the debate, there are many on FR with whom I would not want to share a foxhole.
Polls remain unchanged... Bush up by 5 in PEW and WP/ABC
Here here!! We are in big trouble if die hard Freepers dont believe we can win.
WIN WIN WIN!!!!!
But I WAAAANNNNNNNAAAAA WHIIIIIINE!!
Thanks for speaking up. I like to call them Pajama-Wetters.
Damn right, we got Kerry right where we want him. Sticking out that huge arrogant chin so GWB can hit him with an uppercut. We are going to win in Nov, no doubt about it.
Bush did better in his first debate than Reagan did in his first 1984 debate. And we all know what happened in 1984...landslide. You want a good debater, pick Kerry. You want a good President, pick Bush.
Post debate polls also show him with a good lead in Florida. And I doubt he lost his lead in Ohio where I believe internal polling is very good.
I question whether some of the whiners are really "die hard FReepers" or fair-weather soldiers.
Even more whiney are the handful of Border Bigots who are calling for boycotting the election or voting for the Constipation Party or writing in Trancrepo.
People can say what they like about the debate but only one line from that night has been repeated again and again - "passing the global test."
It wasn't good for Senator Kerry.
Thank you for posting what has been in my mind for the past couple of days. All this whining blows. Kerry gained very little ground on the debate and the ground he did gain is made of sand. His house is built on sand, quicksand to be exact, and it is still going to crumble to the ground and sink into oblivion.
Even in the extrememly unlikely chance of a Kerry win, whining still blows. Strong people gather themselves together and prepare for the fight ahead. They do not fold over in a self destructive crying fit of defeat.
I live in Ohio and the latest Columbus poll had him up by 5 here too!
It is amazing how many times Bush has lost the election according to freepers. His interview on MTP, no WMD, no response to F9/11, claiming the WOT can not be won, and now the debate. Bush is in a much stronger position than Kerry.
