| A Challenge to myself and ALL DUers |

We have 3 days before McCokespoon wins the first debate. And we all know that he is going to win the debate no matter what. Get it?
I am going to send the message to every single media outlet that I can think of that we are ON TO THEIR SPIN. Tell them in advance that we know the fix is in. That we know how it will be phrased and memed for Kerry and Bush. It won't stop them from doing it, but they will know that we aren't going to lay down and accept them aiding and abetting a criminal. As much as Bush is our sworn enemy number 1, the media is surely enemy number 1A.
Time to take it to them. I am starting. TODAY!

| 1. Is Fox news going to broadcast the debates or |
|
just analyze them like they did the Democratic Convention?

| 2. Why don't you wait for the debates |
|
and give Kerry the benefit of your doubt? NOTHING is a done deal at this point.

| 3. It is not about how Kerry will do - It is what the media will say happened |

| 7. That is the EXACT thread we should use |
|
I saw that thread and that is where I got this notion to do this. Its well and fine if WE know, but I think that the media should be made to KNOW that WE KNOW.

| 6. Because we cannot wait |
|
Too often we are reaction machines. We wring our hands at what the press says and does. We have a powerful tool at our hands and we had best use it. I know Kerry is going to win this thing but I refuse to sit and wait for him to do it. I have made phone calls I have worked at polls in different states I have knocked on doors in Iowa and I have marched in New York and I have not done enough. Through the internet I am going to let the powers that be know that I am onto their game. Who is with me?

| 5. I think that kerry is finding his voice now. he's picked up a |
|
theme and he's sticking with it. I believe that the whore's will spin it as a tie.

Not for self-aggrandizement, but because I think it is a worthwhile undertaking
