Why aren't the other primary candidates campaigning?
I live in a Blue state so there are no ads cause Kerry will win. So im at bit in the dark when it comes to detailed campaign coverage....

BUT, why arent former primary candidates campaigning for Kerry.

Such as Wes Clark, Dean and the likes... I havent seen anything making the evening news, or cable networks. Nor anything at their respected web sites.

Plz fill me in

2. Well,
Edited on Tue Sep-28-04 08:22 AM by Vote_Clark_In_WI
the media may choose not to cover them, but Clark has been out working 24 hours a day stumping for Kerry, talking foreign policy on the Sunday shows - basically busting his butt for Kerry.

edited to add that they aren't even bothering to cover EDWARDS, for goodness sake... and you can't think he's just sitting at home in his living room, hoping people will vote for him...

6. Dean on Air America yesterday
Talking about the debates. They're out there, but you're sure not going to see them on Faux News. Kucinich has also been very vocal in his support of Kerry.

Turn off your TV this instant.
