NOW the gloves come off
The repubs had their moment to appeal to swing voters and undecideds. They blew it.

Now's the time for Kerry to go after them. They made it clear they want this campaign to be about "character" not issues. Let's take them up on that challenge.

Kick 'em where it hurts, Kerry!

1. Have to agree with the tactic
Hopefully, those undecideds and moderates watch BOTH conventions and saw the huge differences between the messages of security, hope, and prosperity (Dems) and the message of hate, bigger government control over lives, and eternal fear squared (Reps). No doubt, Kerry's midnight message showed exactly what he's made of and the clear choice. :)

2. Character--Isn't lying a sign of character flaws?
Someone should compile a master list of Republican lies.

What does that say about them? They have to lie to get elected?

At the top of the list, and all over it, should be the words "compassionate conservatism".

(I had to have my 200th post be something good)

3. Yes at last the week of the hate fest is over
Time for JK to go to work. The good news is that he is a proven "come-back kid" in political campaigns. And..... he ain't even behind!
