The Unofficial Pre Pre-Debate Thread

Posted on 10/13/2004 4:10:17 PM PDT by rocklobster11

Here it is. I'm watching Hardball at the moment. Nicolle Devenish is doing a good job speaking for Bush, as always

So I have to censor my response because of what some aholes at DU might be saying? I don't think so. Somehow i doubt that anything I might say on this forum is going to give anyone anywhere ammunition.

The point to saying he lost is this (besides, gee, it's the TRUTH in the first debate): Hey everyone- get off your asses and start campaigning and praying for W. This is not going to be a walk into a second term. If you think he has it in the bag, he doesn't.

Look, I love W and anyone that knows anything on this forum can't debate that. But he lost the first debate. And if he loses tonight, I am not going to pretend he didn't.

Have you tried listening to the debates on the radio? I find it far more pleasant than watching it on TV.

You know it kills me when I hear the likes of McAuliffe and others say that Kerry won both debates so far and that a third win will put him over the top.

I guess they don't realize that most RELIABLE polling organizations had Bush winning the second debate and even some of them say Bush won the first one as well.

I guess Dems are related to the ostrich after all as they both like to stick their heads in the sand and pretend nothing bad will happen to them!

Remember, Evan Thomas of Time? magazine came out months ago and said that media bias would be worth 10-15 points - in this close of a race that's about impossible to fight. BUT fight we will cause we are not whiny dems.

Did you see where Kerry insulted the Italians again! The man does not know when to keep his mouth shut

we need three threads, one for the optimists, one for the worrywarts and one for the undecided!

And what about the flip floppers? Guess they'll have to be on all 3 threads!

The phone lines give it a metallic aftertaste. Thanks though.

don't forget visiting the hurricane victims the day of the debate while kerry had a manicure - this will help him in Florida no doubt about it - much better for us then the empty words of "won the debate"

Yup. FLA is very important

I'm hoping Rove and company have been mum on Kerry's 30 years in the Senate because they are saving it as ammo for tonight's debate. The record of the 'most liberal senator' should be hammered in the minds of the voters.

Kerry should be cautious ...screaming outsourcing.

He voted for it.

He wants to outsource medicine to Canada....even when some of that medicine from Cananda may not be safe.

AND WHEN IT COMES TO NATIONAL SECURITY....HE WANTS TO OUTSOURCE THAT TOO!

LOL! Funny!

You know, those were really good. They should become part of the FR lexicon. I mean it as an honor—really! :o)

I think FR won't let a live debate thread start until the debate actually starts. That's what happened Friday night.

I have to watch the replay. I work till 7pm and I am in Arizona just about 5 miles to the east of The Gammage where the debate is being held. So that means I won't get home till probably 8-830. Glad Cspan reruns them sans the talking heads.

I do agree with you, Lawgirl. Complacency is why Bush did so poorly in the first debate, I think. He just thought he had the election in the bag and didn't rest up or prepare enough

That's just wrong. The Bush campaign has said for months and months this race was going to be close. Complacency is the last thing I would accuse the President of.
