To: small voice in the wilderness

Well, my gut feeling is that the sKerry campaign screwed the pooch on this one. First, the press let it out too soon (I am still not sure WHY the NYT trumped CBS on this) and the campaign comes out the day after with a full blown commercial? People are NOT stupid. .. ok, so MOST people are not stupid.... and will notice this as strange.

Also, they didn't bother to check to make sure no one had already done a story on this (duh!) that would debunk it. Add to that the fact that a UN organization relesed the "breaking" news and most folks will see this for what it is.

One other factoid the dims probably didn't count on is what this will do to energize the Republican base. I for one don't care if I have to stand in line all day to vote, I will bere there and a lot of folks I know feel the same way. I think that the base (FINALLY) has seen the light and realizes that this crap MUST be stopped at the ballot box. We far outnumber all of the dead union guys and illegal immigrants they can scrape up.

I think this one will bite not only the dims in the arse, but the MSM as well. CBS might as well scrap the whole operation and start over, 'cause Danny boy and company are TOAST!

WE, the American people, or at least the freepers need to post a thread of the mailing address's and emails of the NY Times and Cbs, among others. I'm seeing hundreds of views on these threads but only dozens of replies about this.

I'm really surprised we are not being more proactive. Are we just hoping George can combat Kerry, the media, the terrorists, the UN and run a country all at the same time? Couldn't we even write a short protest letter or make a phone call to the 1 or 2 media institutes responsible for this?

YES, this is a valid insight into all of this......this turn-out factor is a big factor and Republicans are mad as hell.

We had better hope that statement is true. I, too, will wait in line all day if I have to...but quite honestly, the dems and their illegal activities scare me.
