A large majority of the United States, men and women, support Roe v Wade. Instead of pandering to the undecided voter with pro-life leanings - who was never going to vote Democrat anyway - Kerry should have followed Bush's example and mobilised his own base. Bush and Cheney never shied away from using scare tactics to secure voters; Kerry should have got the message out, in no uncertain terms, that under the second term of a Bush administration American women might very well lose their right to choose.

"Bush and Cheney never shied away from using scare tactics to secure voters"
Perhaps the authors rotting teeth and fear of home invasion distracted her from when John Kerry claimed that the draft would be reinstated, or that old people would lose their social security.
I'm just glad to see they're not bitter.
We heard Kerry's message, thank you very much. We disagreed with it. We are not hard of hearing, we are smarter and deserve better than Kerry. Kerry did not fit into our plan for America. (See? I heard him.)
I love how the European media lies about Americans so much, then they are completely dumbfounded whenever Americans don't vote the way they want us to.

In her writing the tragedy of her sister's HIV positive status effects her perspective on promiscuity and drug use.
However, in this article her assumtion that America's morals robotically align with her own is not only elitist, arrogant, but also as evidenced in numerous internal polls highly inaccurate.
I seem to recall an old ad with a chain dangling from the back of a pickup truck.
The classic was the one LBJ ran against Goldwater in 1964: The infamous H-bomb explosion.
And then there's the union thugs...
