Yes we can Lose this thing very easily

[KJacob]

I do not think anyone is taking this for granted.

[TheGoodLife]

The polls said Chavez was behind by 20 points until election day. He then won by 20 points. So yes anything is possible.

[Freepdonia]

If the polls say that Bush is leading by 99%, I'm still going to vote.

[Artemis Webb]

We can lose in a bunch of very different, and very PLASIBLE scenarios.

[blackie]

Be Ever Vigilant!

[Lancey Howard]

Good points. Turnout for Republicans is critical, and if I was running the show I would be reminding people every day of how close the Democrats came to stealing the last Presidential election

[Skooz]

Absolutely.

We have to get out every vote we can to overcome all the dead Democrats, as well as the thousands of mental patients who will be bussed to voting booths and instructed to push the button next to the "D."

And, of course, the many homeless who will vote for Kerry in exchange for a pack of smokes.

[goldstategop]

Yes we can. The fact the race has tightened should help in thwarting complacency and overconfidence. It will motivate our side to get out and VOTE. That's the important thing. If we believe this election in the bag, that's when we could have an unpleasant surprise. We have to work for our victory. Now LET'S ROLL!!!

[PigRigger]

Last week the MSM came out in full force against the President.

They've decided to ignore memogate and how it might tie to the Kerry campaign; they've decided to ignore the lack of substance with regard to Kerry's 4 point plan to win the WOT; they've decide to ignore Kerry's Senate record (or lack there of); and they've decided to undermine the President with constant attacks to undermine and question his credibility.

Can we lose?

With attacks coming from both the WOT front in Iraq and the medias minions, and lets not forget the DNC voter fraud to come, the answer is a resounding yes.

[cwiz24]

I haven't seen much complacency here at FR (with a few exceptions). But I agree--the worst thing we can do is act as if we can't lose. Because we can.

[The Loan Arranger]

Yes, that's why they have Jimmy Carter out there saying that Florida doesn't conform to "international standards" (read Marxist-Leninist standards). If Florida is close, again, they plan to really fight it, this time. Kerry has over 4,000 lawyers on-call to dispute vote tallies wherever they can. These people will stop at nothing to gain back the power they have lost. If each of us asks ten people a day to vote for President Bush (and provide reasons to do so) we will win in November. Do you have a car, mini-van, SUV or other vehicle? How many people are you planning on taking to the polls? (make sure you aren't transporting Dems, let 'em walk!) Have you canvassed your surrounding neighborhoods and suburbs for Bush/Cheney? Yes, I know it might mean missing a ballgame or a nap, but is your country worth the effort? The Democrats are FIRED UP this year, and there will be millions of them out doing door-to-door and other grassroots work, as well as the free cigarettes and wine like last time. Can we afford to sit on our hands? How about taking the money you were going to use for a weekend vacation, new suit or outfit, a night on the town or a new rod & reel, and send it to Bush/Cheney 2004 instead. Brown bag it til Nov. 2nd, and send the money you will save to the Swifties. If Kerry wins, look for Edwards to develop a "mysterious illness" and Hillary to take his place.

[housewife101]

Considering what the libs are willing to do to win I would say it is very possible that we could lose this election.

[wisebeyondbelief]

Vigilance is required. Every time an election is held when the vote is expected to be close or a slight lead for one candidate, voters stay home assuming its in the bag.

Better to be slightly behind in the polls so to inspire others to vote. If come election day Kerry is slightly behind in the projected polls. Bush voters will
more likely stay home while Kerry puppets will rally and
assure the vote.

[pt17]

Agreed and I am really tired of reading those "Kerry is toast" posts. He is not done until he's a post-election krispy critter who's fully cooked and drained. Better to play it like it's anybody's to win or lose, which is reality.

[OregonRepublican]

Thats why everyone needs to volunteer, no excuses! If you didnt volunteer and Nov. 3rd Kerry is president I dont want to here you whine.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Ok.

[PhiKapMom]

Good Points! That is why every Freeper needs to call their State GOP (even if your state is considered safe) and volunteer to be part of Task Force 72 to get out the Republican vote on election day.

Here in Oklahoma which is totally Bush, we have a Task Force 72 up and running in the State under the umbrella of Victory 2004! We are opening an office here in Norman (Cleveland County) next week for Task Force 72 and will start using the phone bank that is being put in to line up volunteers and get out the vote for Bush-Cheney, Dr. Coburn, and the rest of our candidates. Turnout of Republicans in this election is vital for the top of the ticket in Pres Bush to the County CourtHouse candidates.

In Cleveland County (home of the Sooners), we are also hosting a fundraiser on 10 October for our County CourtHouse candidates who are always being left out. This will be a first for our County to raise funds for three really good candidates. If any OK Freepers would like to attend, please freep mail me and I will get you the details!

If you haven't volunteered, go do so today -- pick up your phone and call your State GOP, Victory 2004, or your local County Party and offer your time. There are so many things you can do to help get Republicans to the polls on November 2nd. Task Force 72 needs every person they can get to make sure we win this election on November 2nd.

I would crawl through the bowels of Hell to vote against John Kerry.
