Kerry Is Stepping Into The Bowels Of The Beast Tomorrow Night
Edited on Wed Sep-29-04 09:16 PM by Beetwasher
The slavering maw of this beast called "the media" is licking their collective chops waiting to tear him asunder. They can already taste his flesh and they quiver in anticipation of the opportunity to destroy that which they fear. After all, he reminds them of what they should be, what they can never be and he must pay for that and be taught the lesson of THEIR power. It's a foul, foul thing to behold.

He's a brave man that Kerry and I'm sure he knows exactly what he's getting into. It's a mythic moment, an historic moment, a moment of truth on many levels. All things are possible in the moment.

16. Read what msnbc said about him
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6132832/


<snip>
"Kerry, who has been preparing for the debate at a rural Wisconsin resort, said “the truth” would catch up with Bush during the 90-minute face-to-face encounter at the University of Miami Thursday night."

2. I think if anyone could possibly pull something good from this situation,
its Kerry.

7. The guy's got hero written all over him
Edited on Wed Sep-29-04 09:25 PM by nu_duer
as he faces a proven cowrad, a proven liar, a proven failure - knowing full well that what passes as the press are just as much his enemy as the fraud he'll face on stage.
wtf.

8. After watching the debates between Kerry and Weld,
how weird it will be to watch Kerry "debate "B* who we KNOW isn't going to answer a question but rather parrot back a talking point.

I predict that B* is going to look programmed and essentially repeat 3-5 things for 90 minutes;that might work for 30 minutes, BUT 90 MINUTES? Everyone will come away with the same feeling-B* NEVER ANSWERED THE QUESTION PUT TO HIM.

9. Kerry is going to be cool as
Edited on Wed Sep-29-04 09:41 PM by Lancer
a cucumber; I just feel it in my bones.

No one in the media has mentioned that for the past three days, while in Spring Green, WI, he has been in the shadow of Taliesin, one of Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpieces.

Kerry will have soaked up its vibes and be smooth, artful; at one with all he surveys.

He will do just fine.

22. Kerry campaign sent this via email yesterday...
They're trying to drum up campaign money but this was his message in the email:

I received this message in an email from the Kerry campaign:


When I step to that podium tomorrow night, I know I will be facing a determined opponent.

But I will stand there with the courage of my convictions and the confidence that stems from having millions of grassroots supporters like you standing with me.

Bush and Cheney may believe that they can hide their failures and get away without acknowledging their costly mistakes for 34 more days. But you and I know better. We know that the truth is catching up with them.

So today, tomorrow, and every day to follow, we are going to put it all on the line. We are going to make the final month of this campaign one of the most memorable months in American history. We are going to wage an unrelenting grassroots campaign that will sweep aside all of the false attacks and un-American appeals to fear that are the driving force of our opponents' efforts.

I know how much this election means to you. And I know how much you are counting on me. I am counting on you too. With the September 30 deadline almost here, we Democrats need you to act now. Let us work side-by-side and win.

Thank you.



Bring....it.....ON! :D
