1. I think Bush is going to steal the election

Just a hunch!

[BeachBuckeye]

2. Not gonna let it happen

There will be millions in the street if it happens again and I'll be one of them.

[JanMichael]

4. They'll try though, it's their nature.

You know what's neat about this week's show? Those moran's in Naples, remember the guy who KNEW that Saddam had stockpiles of WMD's, never expected that you'd last long enough to blast Bushites right up to the election.

Bravo!

[BeachBuckeye]

8. I intend to remind a few people of their boasts

Their boasts that we would never make it till election day. Its been a wild ride financially but we did it and we're going to keep on doing it. Don't forget that YOU have been a big part of it my friend.

3. IN. A. LANDSLIDE

on edit: replaced a bitchy comment with this (sorry stephanie!):


IN. A. LANDSLIDE. | not a PREDICTION or a CONCLUSION

I originally posted this in a slightly different form a week or so back. My intent was not to 'jinx' anything or to suggest that we could sit back and watch the landslide,

oh no, we have to be part of the landslide.

While my home state and city (NYC) will safely go for Kerry I still tell EVERYONE to vote. I don't care how red or blue your state is. Vote.

A solid electoral win and a significant popular vote win will mean a MANDATE. MASSIVE TURNOUT across the country is our best hope for neutralizing BBV and other voter manipulations.

It's a little 'pep rally' speech. The kind of thing I've done dozens of times for the cast of a show just before curtain. Believe it and Achieve it.

8 more days....



IN A LANDSLIDE

KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE

I'd be the last person to suggest that the election is in the bag and we can just sit back and wait for Bush to be crushed. There's a great deal of work that must be done.

But, why NOT approach the closing week with a unified confidence?

Whenever I hear a jittery Dem concerned about 'polls' I just say: KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE.

I could go into an extended explanation of 20th century polling methodology in a 21st century election. I could quote statistics on new and un-pollled voters. I could point out that worrying about a NATIONAL poll is utterly pointless.

But, I just say: KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Enough said.

And, as far as kool-ade drinkers go? You can't change a 'mind' that won't engage. Screw 'em! Project unshakable confidence. KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Let them sputter. As far as I'm concerned, a bush win is unworthy of consideration. KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Go away. The best they've got is stealing yard signs and bush is out preaching to his so-called 'base' while real conservatives are attacking. KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE.

As I say above, it doesn't mean sitting back and waiting. It does mean going into the final weeks with utter confidence that a MASSIVE TURNOUT will elect Kerry and send the chimp whimpering back to his 'ranch' an even bigger, and more miserable failure than his Poppy.

[Thtwudbeme]

17. Dude, what's up with this?

This is Stephanie, just posting under my old name...Defeatism?

I think the Bushevics are damn sure gonna try...and to pretend like they aren't is ridiculous.

Thank God the Kerry campaign and the dreaded DLC, and DNC have the money for some great attornies this time, and are prepared for the crap that the Gore campaign wasn't.

Sorry you thought I started off the thread badly; I would put back on my rose colored glasses, but I took them off and smashed them in 2000.

[nostamj]

21. sorry. i didn't pay attention to the SN

just the message. of course we know they're trying to steal it.

BUT, approaching these last days, a 'we already lost' attitude is not something I have much patience with....

esp. when it's ALL about MASSIVE TURNOUT

[Thtwudbeme]

22. But, we actually NEVER lost!

It's going to come down to the attornies...but, I will tell you this: I don't think the Supremos are going to touch the case this year. I think Ted Olsen and that band of goons are going to try to take it to the SC, but it will keep getting kicked back down to the lower court-

Stephanie

[SammyWinstonJack]

6. Thanks for sharing.

[Thtwudbeme]

19. You are welcome!

And thanks for kicking Guy's thread! :)

[nostamj]

5. Guy! did you hear about the "Still The One" flap?

not a HUGE story but a very funny sidenote!

smirk started using the song "Still The One" as the capper on his rallies. an insane idea when you see the lyrics (below).

THEN, the songwriter, who contributed to MoveOn, order them to stop using the song!

you can't make this stuff up! here's a bit I wrote on it (and the inevitable song parody!)


DEFINITIVE PROOF that BC04 is Utterly Insane | and a song!

You can't make this stuff up! CNN reported tonight that the BC campaign has a new 'theme song' - STILL THE ONE!

did anyone look at the lyrics? it's insane. just, mad.

sample:

You're still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one who can scratch my itch
Still the one and I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun, and you're still the one...


this is a PRESIDENTIAL theme song? a campaign theme song. I mean, assuming it's ABOUT the chimp, this song is I LOVE YOU. I ADORE YOU. I (yes, I'll say it) WORSHIP YOU.

can you just HEAR Kerry, Edwards or any surrogate riffing on this gaffe?

Did you hear that the President has a new theme song for his campaign? Yes, it's STILL THE ONE. You remember that don't you? Well, I think it's a perfect choice for this president.

He's STILL THE ONE who has not captured Osama bin Laden
He's STILL THE ONE who has not located any WMDs in Iraq
He's STILL THE ONE who has not developed an exit strategy for Iraq
He's STILL THE ONE who has not created a single private-sector job

you get the idea.

I hope someone jumps on this.

my parody lyric:

ON THE RUN (To the tune of "Still the One")

YOU TOOK THE COUNTRY WITH DIRTY TRICKS
THIS TIME IT'S YOUR TURN TO TAKE A FEW KICKS
WE'VE BEEN ENRAGED NOW FOR A LONG, LONG TIME
YOU'RE ON THE RUN AND YOU WILL NOT MAKE THE CLIMB

YOU'RE ON THE RUN, WEARING YOUR GOP FROWNS
ON THE RUN, A BUNCH OF CLOWNS
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN

LOSERS LIKE YOU DON'T GET TO BE KINGS
YOU'RE A PNAC PUPPET, TIME TO CUT YOUR STRINGS
WATCHING YOU SWEAT, AS YOU'RE FORCED OFF SCRIPT
OOPS, THOSE EXPLOSIVES!, I BET YOU WERE PISSED.

YOU'RE ON THE RUN WITH HATE AND FEAR
ONE THE RUN WITH YOUR LIES MADE CLEAR
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN

YOU'RE ON THE RUN I HEAR THE FEAR IN YOUR VOICE
ON THE RUN, WE'LL SOON REJOICE
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN

FLAILING, YOUR LINES ARE GROWING STALE
THE WIND AT OUR BACK, NOW A GALE
YOU'RE ON THE RUN AND YOUR EDGE IS GONE
ON THE RUN FROM A MAN NAMED JOHN
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN

YOU'RE ON THE RUN WITH THAT ZANY ZELL
ON THE RUN, HEADING STRAIGHT TO HELL
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN

YOU ARE ON THE RUN SO PLEASE LET ME SHOUT
ON THE RUN, THAT'S WITHOUT A DOUBT
WE HAVE NOT YET WON, BUT YOU'RE ON THE RUN!

[BeachBuckeye]

9. Wish I had 10%

of your talent for such things. Great!!

[nostamj]

[guajira]

7. Should be a great show - as usual!!

Max Cleland visited Lake County FL twice the past few months and I was fortunate to see him both times. What a tremendous speaker and individual. Can't wait to hear him again!

Snow is doing to alleviate the lack of Congress raising the ceiling of the deficit????

Be tactful, it was done in 1995!!!

[coreystone]

45. Why did Michael Jackson settle the first time?? Bill???? n/t

[coreystone]

[LWolf]

47. I'm here for the 2nd half, but

can't get connected. I keep getting this message back:

The download of the specified resource has failed.

(Windows Media; what I always listen on!)

I was looking forward to the last show before election day. :(

[coreystone]

49. This may be a dumb question, but, have you recently downloaded..

MS Power Pack 2??

I had a major problem with it for couple of weeks. I couldn't get on the Guy stream. I eventually had to deinstall it!?!?!?

:-)

[LWolf]

52. Not since last week;

Microsoft keeps telling me I have upgrades to download, but I haven't downloaded anything since last Saturday!

[LWolf]

54. ok, I'm here.

For some reason, "click here for streaming audio" that I always use didn't work, but the "listen live" link on the upper right corner of the page did. :shrug:

Anyway, I'm glad to catch the last hour.

:hi:

[Judi Lynn]

57. Excellent! Congrats!

You didn't give up!

[Judi Lynn]

48. Great sound clip. TREMENDOUS.

Simple overkill, damn their hides.



On edit:

I'm using Windows Media. Hope you get it back and running for you.

Guy Jame's playing a song by a Democrat, "Kerry me home!"

[nostamj]

51. saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam (new parody)

that sound collage immediately brought this number for GUYS AND DOLLS to mind... only a first verse/chorus:

(To the tune of "Sit Down You're Rocking the Boat")

I HEARD LAST NIGHT WE WERE IN A WAR ON TERROR
WE SHOULD ALL FEAR FOR THE THREAT IS VERY STRONG
SO I HAD HOPE
THERE WERE GONNA GET OSAMA
BUT THE PRESIDENT, HE JUST GOT IT WRONG
'CAUSE THE BUSHIES ALL SAID: SADDAM,
SADDAM WE'LL SAY IT AGAIN

THE BUSHIES ALL SAID SADDAM
SADDAM HE GETS THE BLAME

HE'S A DEVIL WITH DEADLY GASES
GOES THE SAME REFRAIN OF THEIR TIRED SONG
SADDAM, SADDAM, SADDAM
SADDAM WE'LL SAY IT AGAIN
SADDAM, SADDAM, SADDAM
SADDAM WE'LL SAY IT AGAIN

[Judi Lynn]

53. Hope they'll be saying "Saddam" as they pack for their trip home in Jan.nt

[SammyWinstonJack]

50. That song is awesome!

Has me in tears. "John Kerry, carry me home." :cry:

[coreystone]

55. Guy! Send me a PM on DU when you have a chance....

You and your staff have some REAL Vermont Maple syrup coming. I just need first names and how many. It will be a great post Kerry-Edwards win for "pancakes" on Sunday next week!!

:-)



:dem:

[Dudley_DUright]

56. Max up next!

[Ivote]

Tell Max I said Hi
Saw Him last week at the Banquet in Melbourne.
That's my Hero. Had my picture taken with him and now it's my wallpaper.
Great show

[Dudley_DUright]

59. Max says "this is the most important election in my lifetime"

[Dudley_DUright]

60. Max: "This war was a war of choice"

[coreystone]

61. We are listening to a true American patriot......we should feel so...

HONORED!!!


:yourock: Senator Cleland



:kick:

[Dudley_DUright]

63. I was very honored to meet him in person a few years ago

He does rock! :yourock:

[proud patriot]

65. Senator Cleland was great

:loveya:

[Dudley_DUright]

62. Max mentioned Tora Bora

Here is a good article by terrorism expert Peter Bergen on this topic:

[Judi Lynn]

64. Thank you, Guy James, for getting Max Cleland to speak on your show

I think he is loved by everyone other than certain hellish Republicans.



What a fine, fine man.

[BeachBuckeye]

90. Even though he is missing 3 limbs.....

most of us are not half the man he is.

[coreystone]

66. Without so much assistance from the "Fourth Estate", it wouldn't...

be a contest!!! They skewed the objective reporting of this administration's failures to the n'th degree. He has no POSITIVE record.


:kick:

[LWolf]

67. Here's Nostamj

I can't wait to hear this; "Still the one," LOL.

[nostamj]

72. check out my post #5 above...

it has some the original lyrics and my parody ("ON THE RUN")

(and, yeah, I had a bit of a script today.... ;-)

[LWolf]

85. GREAT parody.

And I'll join you in saying

KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE.

:thumbsup:

[nostamj]

87. thanks! i posted it but....

dropped like a rock! forums are way too fast these days...

there's another new parody in my post #51. inspired by the saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam saddam...

clip that Guy played today

[Dudley_DUright]

68. Hey, it is the New York Bureau

Hey Jeff :hi:

[coreystone]

69. :-) And along comes Jeff! :-) .....

"Born in America" by the BOSS! (sorry B.O.S.), in any event he did a great job with Kerry this week!

Reagan thought it was great!


I guess none of these guys ever listen to the lyrics??

:crazy:

[Liberal_Andy]

74. kick

Great show, Guy!

:kick:

[Judi Lynn]

70. Great call, Nostamj! You're Still the One from the New York Bureau!

Great call. Hope your last Question W performance is the best of all.

[nostamj]

75. thanks.

i think it will be pretty special... expecting a good house. and the cast is REALLY charged to do it one LAST time...

next up? maybe:

LAME DUCK l'Orange - the revue formerly known as Question W.....

[Judi Lynn]

82. Oh, YEAH! Lame Duck l'Orange! Hope we don't have to wait 4 years

[coreystone]

73. It's so sad that Bush didn't support the troops....

:-(

[vetwife]

76. The reason I had to leave sorry did not call

Bush is affecting family values everywhere. We have children especially the eldest who does not want to be held accountable for anything and why should she? Bush..the strongest person in the world does not own up to one mistake and for that alone he should be booted out of office !

[vetwife]

77. I will catch the archives !

[coreystone]

78. Welcome back! :-) n/t

[vetwife]

80. Thanks...My 14 yr old ran up my cell phone to 500.00 and I had to deal

with that young lady ! But she doesn't feel she has to be held acountable !

[jimshoes]

79. Thanks for a great show Guy!

Keep up the good work. Can't wait till next week's show.

83. Yes - a great show and looking forward to next week!

84. I have no doubt we will be celebrating the election of

John Kerry next week. Great show with exceptional guests and callers.

88. We'll definitely be changed Guy James listeners next week.......

One way or another!

Good luck to us all. :hi:

Thank you, Guy James, for another worth while show. Hope we have good news ahead.
