FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network): Bush-Cheney campaign chairman Marc Racicot; Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell; Stephen Zack, general counsel for the Kerry-Edwards campaign in Florida.
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Bush-Cheney campaign manager Ken Mehlman; Bob Shrum, chief communications strategist for the Kerry-Edwards campaign; U.S. Rep. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., a candidate for Senate, and his Democratic opponent, state Education Superintendent Inez Tenenbaum.

Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and Evan Bayh, D-Ind.; former Democratic presidential candidates Howard Dean and retired Gen. Wesley Clark; Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie; Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe.
Rendell, like most ELECTED democrats,
is incapable of original thought and merely
mouths the party line and daily talking points,
whenever he, and they, can remember 'em.
LOL!
Where is Bush strong in PA? In the core, says Rendell. Also in the suburbs because of security and terrorism.
Kerry must do as well as Gore did in PA, he says. There aren't enough votes in the rest of the state to overcome Philadelphia. Trend's going Dem. Biggest deficit in history...
Has Kerry convinced? Rendell dodges this.
White Catholics? are you worried? ER says no, they opposed him and he won.
Fear-mongering. Pre-emptive legal strike quote. Scare tactics? ER admits the hosing ad is over the top but stands firm on the rest. There IS voter intimidation and being ready is the best defense.
Jeb says his brother's going to unite the country after he's elected. ER: Well I hope so. LOL.
Especially when it comes to the war on terror. He was on the front line on 9/11, he gets it, and he's spreading the word.
Please go to the DeMint for Senate web site (click here) or campaign offices and help in any way you can. Get signs, bumper stickers, and volunteer if you live in the state. If not in that state, you can still contribute securely online by credit card.
I wonder if Kerry has ever walked the Wall. Many of my fellow vets have been able to release their inner demons after taking that walk and caressing the names........
"A few minutes ago on CBS's Sunday morning program, Bob Scieffer gave credit to a 25 year old female producer (I didn't catch the name) for the question about strong women. Paraphrasing: A few days before the debate (during a meeting) my 25 year old producer said, "You don't have a single question about women." Obviously, she knew the questions."
You made a BRILLIANT point in catching Scheiffer's "oops"....I DO HOPE it's picked up and mentioned by Brit Hume tomorrow night....but let's not take a chance.. PLEASE email him and ask him to read the Face The Nation transcript!!! While it won't make a tinker's damn worth of difference in the over all scheme of things, it should provide another nail in CBS's credibility coffin.
Why thank you. Unfortunately my fiance won't let me have them. You know, carbs, caffiene and all.
Yes I liked Eds freudian slip L0L
I just don't understand Rush's 'support' of him.
Me neither.
I reckon because Russert treats Rush with such respect and admiration...
Russert's program has achieved its highest ratings (viewership) when Rush has been his solo guest.
Used to be around Thanksgiving.
Rush would sit down for an hour with Russert.
I wish he'd stop that. LOL.
According to frontline Kerry took Taraysuh to the wall on their first date. yeesh Thanks for your service Doug
He skipped the year after he lost his hearing. Has he done it since? (last year) I don't think he has. We will see about this year.
i hope it is a good close game....
Me too. Something like 48 to 0 with the
Stillers winning will do.
Duce up the gut for ten, Ben Roth with the perfect pass to Plex, Hines lays out Dexter Coakley, oh, the massacre.
Too bad it's Phil Simms and Nantz, this game calls for SUmmerall/Madden.
"Dannuh WHite back to punt, at the 40."
Gen Chambers on FNC says the fuel that the 343rd refused to deliver was not contaminated
Me too. I'd rather, weasels rip my flesh...
On FOX, Kristol did a good job of defending Sinclair's fairness in broadcasting the POW documentary. He pointed out that CBS is still using Rather, after forgeries etal, ABC is still using Koppel, after his use of Viet cong witnesses and not interviewing U.S. combat heroes who were eye witnesses etc. It was a great spiel and a little bit of a suprise coming from Kristol. After each of those , he asked "Is THAT fair?" very effective. IMHO
In typical narcissistic Kerry fashion, he illegally filmed a campaign commercial there in 1984!
KERRY FILM CALLED ILLEGAL\ REPORT: TV AT WAR MEMORIAL FORBIDDEN
Published on October 17, 1984
Author(s): Jim Calogero, Globe Staff
A controversial primary campaign advertisement showing Democratic Senate candidate John F. Kerry in front of the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington was filmed illegally against the wishes of the National Park Service, a TV news report said last night.
The report also said that the advertising film crew was chased away by a national park ranger - but apparently not before the TV ad was completed.
Park regulations forbid filming within 200 yards of the memorial without
I know he skipped that year,
and if he availed himself to Russert
after that, I sure didn't see it or hear about it.
