The fact is Democrats and media have been hammering President Bush for six years, nonstop. At some point it has to take a toll, although we have proved the left wrong for six years now. The unknown and critical component in our success is the independent, non aligned voter. These people for the most part realize the left is overplaying the Bush Lied scenario because what they see on TV shows a calm, deliberate mature president. Voters like that confidence and if Bush & Co were to come out swinging it might turn them off. It’s hard to argue with success, and so far the results have been good. The question is whether or not this will work one more time?
In the mean time, people like Kerry and Hillary are playing to their base in being more and more outrageous in their accusations against President Bush. The far-left supporters such as Daily Kos, MoveOn and Democrat Underground have made it pretty clear they will withdraw support unless these people get more radical in attacking President Bush and the Republicans.
Just watch Condi and Kerry today. Condi will be calm and deliberate while Kerry will be outrageous and confrontational. (He may also try to pull a Clinton if he thinks he can get away with it.)
I am not watching any of the shows today. I refuse to let the media depress me, which is what they are trying to do. A pox on all their houses!
That would be nice to see too.
Funny. Especially if you consider that most 'characters' in dreams represent something unconscious in the dreamer....lol
So this is yet further proof that the liberals have a case of collective clinical projection on conservatives!
If BS were concrete, John F'in would be an Interstate Highway.
Make John Bolton King.
John Bolton saying to Timmy "We HAVE been having one on ones with North Korea all the way along!!"
Typical libs claiming we won't talk to them, making them mad....oooh!
Beanie babies come in handy - they are soft, so they don't hurt the TV.
I agree. In fact, I may not watch the shows again until January ;-)
That said, I just might watch Kerry---for comic relief.
What makes you think they will be on together?
Good points, rodguy911.
I hope it works out that way but the Reid scandal may well take more time to develop so I wouldn't count on it unless the media picks up on it more.
There IS more than three weeks left and things just have a way of happening, don't they.
If that was their goal they should have used another cast member.

We never seem to get those top star matchups. It's always the B team.
I just did an analysis of all the DBM's (including FNC) political web sites. I wanted to see if there really is bias in the DBM. I wasn't surprised to find it, of course.
I used the Foley "Scandal" versus the newly brewing information about Harry Reid.
The Foley scandal broke the day he resigned, Friday, Sept 29th. The Harry Reid scandal first broke on Tuesday the 10th, with the Solomon story on AP. Four days after the Foley story, every major DBM outlet, print and television, had it as the top story. Four days after the Reid story broke, only a few of the DBM have highlighted it, and then none as their top story.
Foley resigned after being outed. Reid is still serving as the top national elected democrat in the world.
Foley's supposed sexual predation of House pages, several perhaps underage, has led to calls for Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the House of Representatives, to step down, from within his own party, by almost all the top democrats, and by most of the DBM. Harry Reid has been asked to step down by a only couple of media outlets (Philadelphia Inquirer).
The television political web sites as of 10:00 AM CDT, Saturday 14 Oct 2006. Only two have any information on the Harry Reid Land Deal Swindle (as of my posting--note that these pages will probably be updated as time goes on):
The DBM says that there really is no bias in their reporting, and that just as conservatives state there is bias towards the Left, Leftists state there is bias to the Right (as the DBM is owned by big corporations, who are Rightists). However, an objective analysis shows that when it comes to the Foley versus Reid scandals, the one damaging to the Republicans has been disseminated far and wide, while the one involving the Democrats has gotten virtually no coverage. The Foley scandal has worked its way into the national consciousness, hurting the Republican chances at keeping control of the government (indeed, a story the DBM is directly reporting and attributing to their coverage of the Foley scandal), while it appears that suppressing the Reid scandal is being done with the express desire to ensure it doesn't harm Democratic political chances in the coming election.
Well it would be odd to bring them both to the studio without having them go one on one.
..... and don't forget (Self-Serving Politicians and Big Media Screaming Faces Governmental Propaganda).
;-)
Must see TV this morning is the Pirro-Cuomo debate on ABC local station -- going on now.
