After reading John Kerry's latest speech...
It's amazing to me how anyone still supports *. Kerry gives detailed insights to what is happening in the world and what needs to be done and how he's going to do it.

Moron only works in sound bites at best. I have yet to hear him say anything about what he's going to do if he gets reappointed.

So many people with their heads in the sand...just appalling.

limited to 30 sec. After * says terror, 9/11, Saddam, brutal dictator, gassed his own people, can't take the word of a mad man, I defend America everytime, what is he going to say for the other 20 sec ?

5. Bush Sound bites repeated by 10 RW surrogates WORK better than JK detailed

and reasonable analysis.

Dems surrogates need to coordinate to reinforce Kerry's message rather
that engage in intelligent, decerning commentary.

UNDECIDEDS are such because they are neither intelligent nor descerning.

9. I'm afraid you are right.
Kerry's surrogates should have hit back on the flip-flopping and the 87 billion vote right away. I can't tell you how many times I have hollared at the tv screen.

7. I know I know I know
It's a frigging alternate universe. I watched our great leader's Rose Garden appearance yesterday and literally laughed out loud. Nothing he says is related to reality. If you are in a whacky mood, it's almost bareable if you think along the lines..someday they will be talking about what an awful unbelievable time in American history this was, and yes I witnessed the surreal nightmare first hand.

8. I've made the following observation while speaking with
undecideds or 'soft' republicans.

They say they want more 'details' about Kerry's programs. No, they don't. They don't give a crap about details, they just want to appear 'smart' and involved. If you rolled up a wheelbarrow filled to capacity with a shitload of details and parked it at their feet, they couldn't make head nor tails of anything beyond the basic themes.

If they gave the slightest thought to details they could not possibly consider voting for Shrub under any circumstances.

Every time I see one of those interviews, usually in a swing state coffee shop, where some bozo smiles greasily while furrowing their brow and come up with the "I need more details" crap, I run to worship at the porcelain throne.

I'm having one of those "Kerry/Edwards are too good for the likes of us" days. Shoot me, please.

10. I want someone to do a poll of Repubs to find out if they are
delusional or know the truth but just don't care.

It is probably a combination of the two.

They did that survey that showed Faux viewers were the most ignorant of the facts (such as that Saddam didn't attack us on 9/11 and that it was almost all Saudis and no Iraqi's on the planes on 9/11).

I want to see a survey of Rethugs asking them questions like - who attacked us on 9/11; have the number of people living in poverty gone up during the * Admin, etc.

There are so many things that we have concrete facts on that show * to be a complete failure, how do they justify their support in their own minds?
