What exactly IS the record Bush is going to run on ? |
|
What can he possibly tout as "accomplishments" that cannot be easily destroyed with a few hard facts ???

2. He will run exactly the same way he ran last time. |
|
He will run as a social moderate who is tuff on terrorism. He will run as the protector of family values. He will run using the conservatives as good for the economy myth. He will run based on tax cuts.
We could map out his campaign today, doesnt make it much easier to counter it though. Remember its not the truth that matters, simply the perception.

16. junior was a War President - junior fought terror with all his might |
|
junior a visionary man of God with a vision to make the poor poorer and...and the wealthy richer...and the middle class jobless.
Mullah Omar will be captured alive and Laura will be on her way to Afghanistan to to to .....tell the ladies that burka's are against the law. She'll open the first library in Kabul that serves beer in a democratic way.
Iraq will be bribed to be cool until after the election.
bin Laden will do what dead folks do, just as long as no connection can be found with the Bush Family.
Raygun last words will be "win one for the gipper" if he croaks next October. Maybe Cheney's heart may skip a beat in the excitement, or agitation, who knows? Ya can't say anything about anyone after their gone can 'ya?
With the new touch screen voting machine, it will be close.

13. Just happened to hear -- |
|
the themes tonight on Hardball. --by Ralph Reid, regionl Director RNC. The President has given us steady strong leadership in very changing times--We are facingsuch serious challenges globally --terrorism and globalization is proving a challenge with job losses. These changing times____These changing times require a strong leader with resolve/ In other words the world is in such a mess you need the leader there to save us. I must admit the song which they repeat over and over mkight fool some. I thought how did we get in this mess Sir?
When is someone going stop letting them blame the recession on CLinton.
I remember as Cheny was running into office the first day they started talking recession. It was so bad there was a call for them to stop or they Adm) would talk the country into a recession which apparently they did.

All they can do is go negative. The RNC has already hinted that they will go after Kerry or Edwards or whoever.
There is nothing to support this administration, unless you happen to be extremely wealthy.

The U.S.S. Bullshit will set sail with; "the Democrats talk the talk, but don't walk the walk." Not sure if Bush* will launch this vessle laden with horseshit before or during the GOP Convention.
He'll cite Medicare, Tax Cuts, Free Iraq, blah, blah, blah.......

They'll run ads about how un-Christian and anti-family the Democrats are then show Saddam's capture, the statue falling, etc. The flag-waving sycophants will lap it up like mother's milk.

29. Only he and the cadre of neocons who surround him can protect us |
|
from those evil terrorists and all the other evil lurking out there in the world. Only they, being all-wise and omnipotent, can properly assess all the lurking danger and have the balls to take whatever pre-emptive action is necessary to protect us. With GWB, we can feel safe and secure, economically and militarily.

34. Can't run on his record |
|
I don't get the 9/11 thing... so a huge terrorist attack happened on his watch so I should vote for him why?
Jobs? better not mention that.
The economy? nope most people aren't better off than they were four years ago.
Foreign policy? nope GWB made the entire rest of the world hate the USA.
Iraq? never heard of it.
Invading the moon/mars? Everyone, even the freeper morans, knows that his proposal is a joke.
Fiscal responsibility? $500,000,000,000 deficit.
Can't run on facts or accomplishments only on fear-mongering, hatred and bigotry.
"John Kerry is a New England liberal! if it weren't for me Saddam & bin Laden are gunna get ya! gay people are a threat to your family!"
Bottom line: GWB is toast.

There was an article posted here today where Tom Delay said gay marriage would be one of the central issues of the campaign. Maybe terrorism and Kerry's anti-war stance after Viet Nam, but, other than that there isn't a lot that george can hang his hat on.
