"After a very strong speech and convention, Kerry is stumbling."

[stopbush]

Trust me, you will hear this attack in the media and from the rw within the next week to 10 days. Maybe within the next 48 hours.

It will come from the most insignificant things that happen on the campaign trail, from reworking old, discredited lies to the creation of entirely new and even more outrageous lies.

The media cannot deny the strength of Kerry's performance nor the strong positive message of the DNC. But they will talk about a Kerry "let down," how this is par for the course for him ("remember how he deflated after Iowa?") and they will try to develop it into a new flip-flop attack.

"Kerry is taking his supporters on an emotional roller coaster...up one day, down the next." Etc. etc.

Let's be prepared and ready to fight this with all vigor.

1. Sort of like the way the media were talking about

"the failed Clinton administration" two weeks into his first term.

2. The Democratic Party is unleashing a 100 million dollar blitz in August

The Republicans won't be able to do much without being answered.
