Kerry to Counter Bush Speech in Ohio

[Nambe]

NANTUCKET, Mass. (AP)

Hours after George W. Bush is to accept the Republican Party's nomination for re-election in New York on Thursday night, Democrat John Kerry plans to respond at Ground Zero of the presidential campaign -- Ohio.

Kerry is kicking off the general election in the battleground state that Bush won in the last race, as has every other Republican who's ever been elected president. ..

Although Bush won the state by four percentage points in 2000, he is vulnerable because the state has lost more than 200,000 jobs since he took office.

Kerry-Edwards campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill said the message to voters in the general election kickoff will be that there is a fundamental choice in November -- "four more years of policies that benefit the few and catastrophic successes that blame the military for administration miscalculations, or the Kerry-Edwards plan to build an economy that strengthens and expands the middle class." ..

The campaign will pass out copies of the Kerry-Edwards book, "Our Plan for America," which also goes on sale next week to the public for $12.95.

1. BORRRR-ING

How about, "...four more years of INCOMPETENCE, CORRUPTION, and catastrophic foreign and domestic policy FAILURES, or the Kerry-Edwards plan to RESTORE both America's reputation AND economic future."

Let's all give it a go--how would YOU rewrite that sentence?

2. Well, I like that they brought up the Bushism "catastrophic success."

In the new Time Magazine interview, Bush himself referred to the Iraq War as a "catastrophic success," whatever in the hell that means. :grr:
