The Chickenhawks are digging themselves into a hole deeper and deeper

[trumad]

and Kerry's letting them do it. I since a trap by JK and I sense that he's about to spring it! A whole bunch of folks are calling for JK to call GW out on this and I think he's about to. AND with fury! Dubya's henchmen aren't lower rung flunkies, they've been Cheney, Hughes, etc.

No... I think JK's holding back for the clear shot to the head!

2. you could be right

as something big is suppose to happen this week

[NewJeffCT]

3. I hope you are right

But, I will believe it when I see it. I hope it's just JK using Rope-A-Dope tactics, as Bushco has done a great job at painting Kerry as a tax raising, weak on defense, out of touch, limo liberal.

5. Not that great

A 45 million dollar ad campaign only bumped the Shrub a few points in the polls...

6. A Clear sign of the brilliant mind of karl rove

Too bad karl, millions just don't see it. I know. Kerry and us damn liberals are just sposed to sit back and take your right wing shit like some previous dem candidates did. Not this year. A positive note for you karl. I doubt very seriously that you could possibly piss this veteran off more than you already have, but go ahead and try.

7. If you are referring to them attacking his service record,

he began that yesterday.

He has called for *Bush to prove that he completed his service in the Texas Air National Guard.

He needs, and is starting, to frame the debate.

Once you hammer home on them, they fold.

I regularly run cons off the Yahoo boards using this very tactic.

Ask cons you know to provide proof, and they will begin talking about Kerry. Every single time.

Refuse to allow that to happen.

Tell them this is about *Bush and his record. If they want proof give it them. It is on Kerry's website.

I have never gotten a single response offering anything, because there is none.

And it drives them absolutely crazy.

Kerry seems to understand that he has been handed a gift from *Bush Inc.

And he better capitalize on it now.

8. Exactly

9. I was thinking the same thing:

the more the media lays into Kerry on the medals issue and other nonsense, the more likely it is that the Kerry campaign will use it to turn onto Busco and call them chickens and chickenhawks and get the real comparison of both records out there.

And for effect, Kerry should also work towards getting an appearance with * so people will see how his height towers over Scrub. I know that sounds petty, but it can be psychologically very effective.
