4. Not true--a base canard. Bush believes it...
and he has half a brain. (Just missing the left half, with the language capabilities, sequential organizing skills & a few other little attirbutes).

6. I'm black, know a lot of black people...
and have YET to meet anyone who's voting for Bush, period! Hell, those stupid ads they keep running on the Black radio stations just pissed us off even more, as though we were going to forget all the crap they pulled in Florida the last time.

7. Oh yeah, "John Kerry is a rich white man"
Excuse me?

Here in Milwaukee, I think the attempt at shorting ballots has energized our Black voters. That and Gwen Moore, possible first Black Congresswoman from Wisconsin.

As Gwen said at the GOTV convention a couple weeks ago, she wasn't even supposed to have gotten this far. She didn't have the money or the backing or the big name. But the powers that be didn't know something. "They didn't know about y'all," she said, pointing at us. We roared.

Same thing nationally, I reckon. They underestimate what's going on out here. We're mad as hell, and we're not going to take it any more.
