Cafferty reading letters from viewers..
on what Kerry can do to revitalize his campaign. To a person they are saying FIRE AND BRIMSTONE and he's got SO MUCH material to throw at the lying assholes in the WH, Go GO GO.

Thoughts?

1. 1st response was great....
someone wrote that it wouldn't matter if Kerry was reading Shakespere with his hair on fire...the media won't cover him...they only give him maybe 5 mins coverage... That was great!!!

3. I don't think he has it in him
I was cleaning out a briefcase I took on a business trip and came across an August 9 copy of USA Today I had squirreled away. The lead editorial is entitled "Missing in Action:Kerry's Complete Strategy for Iraq". Here's the link, but it'll cost you $2.50 to read the thing unless you already have a subscription.

http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/USAToday/676355851.html?did=676355851&FMT=ABS&FMTS=FT&date=Aug+9%2C+2004&author=&desc=Missing+in+action%3A+Kerry%27s+complete+strategy+for+Iraq

Here's an excerpt (sorry: I'm not about to type in the whole thing. ;) )

"It all sounds so good and plausible and logical. Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, so say his advisors, didn't dwell much on his plans for Iraq at last month's convention - a turn-away-and-you-miss-them 55 words or so in a 45-minute speech."

<snip>

"Kerry has done little to separate his views from those of President Bush.

Both want more international military and financial help, a stable and relatively democratic government, an intensive training of Iraqi security forces and a gradual drawdown of US troops. But who wouldn't? The question is how to get there."

Sadly, in my view, not much has changed except that it's 6 weeks later. Those callers sound as though they are feeling the same frustration I am.
