If You Are As Fired Up By Kerry As I Am, Put In Your Two Cents Here

[DrFunkenstein]

"Stubborn incompetence"

"Colossal failures of judgement"

"Reckless mistakes"

"Misled, miscalculated, and mismanaged every aspect of this undertaking"

"A profound diversion"

It's like Kerry reached down into the fiery well of Democratic outrage and absorbed it fully into his own guts, eyes blazing for the glory.

We've all had darkest hours and spoken or unspoken fears, but the chariots have left the stables. The road may be hard and perilous, the obstacles daunting, but the way leads up that great height, not to calamity, but to victory, victory, victory!

Shout from the windows of democracy - by the setting of the sun, we shall call the day ours!

Kerry has done us proud, taking with him the righteous ghosts of Wesley Clark and Howard Dean. Onward!

1. On Chimpy at the UN: "He has no credibility"

Good job, John!!

[coloradodem2005]

2. Is this Kerry the closer?

It seems like Kerry the closer has taken over. ;)

[Droopy]

4. That is John I'm-gonna-kick-W's-ass Kerry

[Zynx]

15. Yeah. He looks like he did during the last few weeks in Iowa now.

Which means that he's going to kick some ass.

[Droopy]

3. That speech definitely got a lot of people's attention

Let's hope Kerry keeps it up.

[21winner]

5. Big John is always good.

I like him.

[LittleClarkie]

6. Yawp!

I've had a grin on my face no one understands for two days now.

Doing the debates sitting on Cheney's lap. Oh. My. God. I'm so jazzed I don't know what to do with myself.

[readmylips]

7. Bush asleep at the Wheel Again, Putin Becomes Dictator...

Bush can only focus on two things; taxes for the rich and money wasted on a stupid war, Iraq.

[oasis]

8. I will accept nothing short of a Kerry landslide.

And I mean that. :mad:

[izzie]

9. I like Kerry when he gets out and speaks up.

I hate the party when it gives in to who ever is running it into the middle. We are a party of working people and I do not like it dulled. I left the Republican party years ago and I do not wish to be in a party that is sort of Republicans and for gets what it stands for. Nader is still the best Dem. speaking man around. He is where we should be and I hope Kerry moves and stays on the left.

[Leilani]

10. YES! YES! YES!

Finally, finally, what some of us have been thirsting for!

Good riddens to the Bob Shrum campaign tactics.

Welcome to the fighters!

Howard Deans anger & Wes Clarks foreign policy theory...on display.

And the honesty of both.

ITS THE WAR & NATIONAL SECURITY, STUPID!

[Lexingtonian]

11. yep, that's our John

And he gets better than this. :-)

You're gonna to see some Republican howling and agony during the next couple of weeks as he wrenches this thing out of their grasp and leaves them worn out and without viable excuses or hopes.

Weld's people say they tried everything and tried it well as Kerry started inching away in October that year- and he left them feeling utterly expended and totally defeated on Election Day (it ended Weld's career, ultimately) despite the modest margin of victory. An experience I would very much like for Karl Rove and the $300 million Bush effort to share in a very complete and detailed and personal way....

12. the 'October surprise' is John Kerry

Kerry is one-hundred times the candidate in the final weeks/days of a campaign than he is at the beginning and middle. Whatever the reason, when the shot clock starts ticking down Kerry's ability to connect goes up. He really 'locks in' and becomes a different person. It's quite amazing.

[Chili]

16. it's amazing...

...no matter how many times I heard or read "he's a closer" over and over, seeing is believing - he's really stepped it up, and the candidate earlier in the spring and summer are a mere shadow of this man!

[daydreamer]

13. I really like the speech

Kerry is on his way to the White House. Bush is finished.

[liberal N proud]

14. I was fired up after the first time I attended a Kerry rally

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

17. Hoo-ah! I'm fired up and I didn't even see the NYU speech.

Is it available online anywhere? c-span perhaps?

[Zech Marquis]

19. go straight tot he source

the whole speeech is online at johnkerry.com, in the media section under Speeches

[Zech Marquis]

18. even better
