Kerry camp feeling good about NH and FL
And, as we all know, that is game, set, match.

"A senior Kerry strategist, Doug Sosnik, said the senator is even better positioned. Sosnik said their internal polls show Kerry has moved into a "clear lead" in both New Hampshire and Florida.

"We've gotten numbers back since the debate that show us ahead ," he said, adding that Kerry "would win New Hampshire today."

4. Florida is probably all Kerry has to add.

He could lost WI and IA and still win.

6. Yes, Florida is the big one!
That means almost automatic victory.

5. Yes!
I have always thought that the campaigns have better information than the general public. Accordingly, you can glean how the campaign is going by watching where the candidates spend their time. If Bush spends a lot of time in FL, he is in trouble.

7. Do they think Jeb will let us win Florida?
We need a HUGE margin, I'm afraid. There are going to be more than a few "irregularities" on November 2 in Florida.

8. Certainly, Jeb will not "let us win".
That's why Kerry has 500 lawyers on the ground in Florida.

11. How can you all say awesome?
They are still showing Bush/Cheney leading with the electoral votes. We need to get those up or there will be a repeat of 2000. :-(

16. Not defeatist, realist.
If you don't think the Repugs are going to pull all the stops out in Florida, you're in for a rude surprise. And all the lawyers in the world won't do a bit of good since the Repugs control the courts.

The only way to win Florida is to have a cheat proof margin.

12. hmmm--let's see. Debate #3. Domestic Issues. Fl. Seniors. SS/Medicare
You can bet that one group that will be watching with baited breath in the last debate are the seniors (like in FLORIDA) and those who will retire in a few years. If Kerry nails it out of the park on the Medicare, SS, and DRUG mess in this country, a whole shit pot of gray haired people (including the church ladies) will vote Kerry. How many church ladies think first about their security when it really comes down to it???? That's why this debate is the "elder" clincher.

13. I so hope they're right about NH...
...I'm so tired of being embarrassed I live in this state. If we can dump Craig Benson too, I could almost stand the repug stench that permeates every other crack and crevice of our state and local government.
