1. why so verbose?

all they need to write is

"whats wrong with america"

[AP]

2. If you're looking for Kerry, you ask for Kerry. If you don't know what you

looking for, the Republican Party is looking for you.

4. need to increase the meta words in kerry's pages so searches

come up with his page as an answer to many searches

5. But haven't meta keywords gotten so abused they are almost useless?

I thought Google does most of there search based on content and linkages, not meta "crap".

6. they work - I have put them in my pages and it makes a difference

not everyone uses google - I try not to use google if I am really looking for something
