1. This is like Rocky IV.
Oh sure, everyone *knows* Drago is going to win, except for Rocky. Kerry's going to walk out there tonight, and everyone will expect him to lose. But Kerry will be driven, and backed up by both the facts and the courage of his convictions. I'm confident.

3. I love that movie! . . .
Maybe we'll even see a few rethugs give our Rocky a standing ovation??

Ok, back to reality, that will never happen, but it was a nice little fantasy.

6. I don't like the last sentence"verbal dead end'. They couldn't help
themselves. They had to get in a dig at Kerry!

12. This is interesting
Dan Bartlett, White House communications director, said Bush's debate preparations were "long and steady instead of a crash course." Bush, he said, "knows his positions. You don't have to memorize something you believe in."


Surely they're not letting that moron go into a debate against Kerry unprepared!

13. What would "prepared" be?
A brain transplant?

24. Did he also memorize Kerry's BCCI investigation?
Especially the parts about BCCI being the biggest bunch of crooks in history and Bush having done business with them?

14. Afraid
I'm afraid for Kerry tonight, so much is riding on him. There is so much pressure on him, but where does this idiot of a resident get off? There is still no pressure on him. My impression is...let Kerry take the heat while "I sit in the bushes and hide" as Shrub licks his chops. Shouldn't the current resident have the pressure? Some one stop me here, the pressure is in the wrong stall. Is it me, or is there something wrong with this picture? It should be Shrub being accountable, not Kerry!

21. "It should be Shrub being accountable, not Kerry!"
No, it's not just you; Yes, there is something wrong with this picture. Mr. Accountability is missing in action. Republicans are so moral, so higher-ground that they don't have to account for major fuck ups like optional wars and ransacked social security accounts.

23. Don't be afraid. Be confident. Be positive. Be supportive.
Whether he likes it or not, Scrub is going to be held accountable. Kerry is going to let him have it with both barrels tonight.

This is Kerry's natural environment, albeit with some ridiculous obstructions to try to tilt the playing field toward Scrub. If his team weren't confident they could mop the floor with this loser, they wouldn't have agreed to all the stipulations. Look for our man to 'bend' the rules a bit...

Edited on Thu Sep-30-04 05:46 PM by jdjkkse
Show a blue-blood Connecticut cheerleader going undercover as a Texas cowboy and screwing up the entire world.
