That's the real story here: for all Howard Dean's talk that you can't beat Bush with "Bush Lite", the candidates who'll survive to the southern primaries next week are doing their best not to sound anti-war, anti-tax cuts or anti-guns. In other words, even in the Democratic primary, this election's now being fought on Republican terms.
Now, if only there was a way to get our critters in Congress and the White House to stop pretending to be Democrats half the day, we'd have a clean sweep here.

Re#4 I'm with you and it may not be a squeaker. Howie's got a GOTV thing going that is not reflected in the polls, IMHO. Very interesting....

After spending the best part of a year listening to the Democrats' strolling minstrels strumming their way round the White Mountains, I'm staggered by how little any of them have to say. The New Hampshire economy would probably be a slump this year but for the wandering minstrels spinning yarns and shoveling manure.

Someone confronted me last night about this poll showing Kerry beating Bush by 3 points, wanted my take on it, and I said this poll is irrelevant. They then said "Why?" And I said "It's the middle of frickin January, and we don't know if Kerry will win the party nomination or not." Matter of fact, we don't even know who will get the nomination. Do I care who gets the nomination? No. They're all unelectable. I'm not worried, nervous, or scared.

Who knows? The one thing that is for certain is that the Rat primaries are entertaining.

I saw Ms. Ketchup Kid on Hardball tonight. She had an odd accent so I did a bit of checking. Turns out Ms. Ketchup kid was born in Mozambique, the daughter of a Portuguese doctor. She later went to college in Johannesburg, South Africa. Mozambique was from 1569-1975, ruled by the Portuguese as a colony. I wonder how all the African-Amerians will take to a former white African colonial as the first lady? Odd the press hasn't made anything of her origins.

Maybe you know if this is true or not. If no Dem candidate manages 50 percent of the delegates by convention time, even Hillary can run in later ballots taken at the convention. Is this so?

Sen John Edwards, the pretty-boy southern lawyer, does a much better job of this sort of thing. I caught him at Gorham Town Hall way up in the mountains on Saturday morning. It was a brutally cold morning 40 degrees below freezing but the place was packed and we all came away enthused, I just saw Edwards on Oreilly, the guy got hammered on tuff questions and didnt get rattled. He said he is "waiting" for the attacks and that he can handle it.
He is fixing to bump it up a notch.

47-year-old Arlene Claxton of Hooksett worked 20 years to build up her hairdressing business only to contract a rare skin disease from a conditioner manufactured overseas by corporations George W Bush has given tax breaks to in order to export American jobs abroad to jurisdictions lacking environmental safeguards thanks to a sweetheart deal negotiated by a lobbyist for Halliburton and then learnt that her health insurer wouldn't cover the cost of treatment because etc etc. -Mark SteynLOL. Everything is Bush's fault. In the film The Sweet Hereafter, Ian Holm plays a glorified ambulance chaser who capitalizes on people's willingness to sue after a disaster. This reminds me of the Democrats, particularly John Edwards, for obvious reasons.

Someone confronted me last night about this poll showing Kerry beating Bush by 3 points Also, what is seldom mentioned is that Newsweak polled warm bodies, not registered voters or likely voters. Fred Barnes mentioned last night that Newsweak had a poll in 1984 showing Mondale beating Reagan. Same shtick here.

Larouche is the guy who thinks the Queen is an international drugs kingpin (or, in this case, queenpin) secretly running the world on her cocaine profits. Compared with some of the wackier utterances of Dean and Clark, the House of Windsor drug cartel is one of the less fanciful notions this primary season.ROFL!
