Kerry might come off looking petty if he attacks too much tonight
Faux News commentator made a great point for a change. If Kerry wanted to answer the attacks, he should have done it last night (not that he would have known they were coming). Point is, after Bush's speech, Kerry's speech will be spun as "petty" by the media. That's his word, but I bet that's how it's gonna be received by the media.

1. Forget about it! I want him petty! Stop with the kinder, gentler dems.
We are battling poisonous, dangerous, beasts.

5. Bullshit
That's the same mamby pamby chickenshit way of thinking that let BushCo. and the swifties tee off on him for two weeks. Time to get down. Time to get dirty.

8. If he waits, they say "Why didn't he come out right away?"
If he comes out right away, they call it inappropriate for whatever reason.

I hope he says something TONIGHT so his rebuttal is in tomorrow's frontpage articles.

15. On the basis of all the lies and distortions I heard tonight
Kerry needs to do or say what ever he wants. Trying to capture the high ground from this event is a lost cause anyway. There isnt any.

This is going to be a knock down drag out affair. Republican = liar.
Pure and simple. You have a person of integrity going up againts a King Kong sized weasel. I am in a take no prisoners state of mind.

16. Bull fucking shit. That $87 billion lie needs to be shoved up Bush's ass
The body armor problem was his and Rumsfeld's fault.
Bush is a clueless moron on defense logistics. Shit, Bush is a clueless moron.
