If this has already been discussed I apologize but everyone is talking about the Kerry campaign, the polls, and Mary Beth Cahill's demeanor but have you discussed the final night strategy change the Repubs made. Karl Rove had been indicating for weeks that they were not trying to reach the undecided voters but were trying to capture the 4 million radical Christians that did not vote last time. The first three nights were obviously scripted for them.
However, I think they figured out Wednesday night after Zell's diatribe that his strategy had backfired and they then scrambled to re-write the President's speech and tried to close the convention on an entirely different note. I think Karen Hughes got pulled back into the mix (poor Karl) and she helped drop in all those middle class entitlement ideas that were clearly not fleshed out but were aimed at the undecided voters and women.
Shouldn't we be looking at their problems to the same degree we are calling out our own - I think they have the real problem. They really don't know who they are.
