The defeat of Bush is also the defeat of the Propagandists...
Those that have used religion and nationalism to divide our country. Those that have divided us as right or wrong, Christian or non-Christian. They have consolidated their right-wing message across every corner of this country. There is no where you can go without listening to Rush, Hannity, or O'Reilly and numerous other talking heads, for up to 6 to 9 hours per day. Political propaganda!

If Bush is defeated, this right-wing machine is also defeated. They understand the significance of this election. They do not plan on losing . They believe they have enough power to keep Bush in the WH, just as they had enough power to push hte impeachment against former President Bill Clinton. They were the driving force behind hte impeachment and they know it. Just as they know they are the driving force behind Bush simply being competitive in this race, considering the calamitous job he has done.

There is a lot at stake and it's not just the future of George W Bush or the Repubs.

3. Truth is
That's 50% of the reason for my vote. To repudiate that crap as public policy.

4. They are like any other bullies
They bullied their way into power, bullied everyone around, and made an utter mess of everything. Now they know somewhere in their guts that they need help. I think they want to lose at some level. They know that they are out of their depth. Nothing they planned has worked out as expected - now they're wandering around with blank, dumb looks on their faces.

They are going down. They have lost their will, right when ours is stronger than ever.

8. AAR: in your Will: ask for subsidies fm DNC, AFL CIO
Our counter to hate radio has to be AAR. air america radio.

Now, we are mostly

"a party without a voice"

We need to be in every city, even if we have to buy a station at a total loss forever in that city.

5. This is the start of the domino effect
First shrub is going to lose, Limpballs will finally be brought up on charges, O'Reilly will have to settle for an enormous sum or the tapes will be released, either way he is all but finished. Once Kerry is in investigations will finally take center stage. Everything from Plame, the Dept. of Defense treason scandal to having the new Media Act passed.

It can't happen fast enough as far as I concerned.

6. They will not surrender. The fight has only just begun.
The battle is just begun when Kerry is elected. We must never allow the rich corporate fascists to cause a disaster like the Bush administration ever again !

7. No it's just the beginning of the war. Make no mistake, this will take the
rest of our lives. But the defeat of Bush will be a landmark battle in the war. (Sending Rove back to Texas disgraced and unemployable is just a side benefit.)
