After today's events, * is on the ropes!! How to keep him there?
What do we need to do to keep up this momentum? Thursday is the last serious news cycle before the weekend; whatever comes out tomorrow will be subject to the usual lower interest among news consumers.

What must we do on the Sunday news shows this week? They could be critical.

What must we do to capitalize on the plethora of positives coming out of today's news cycle?

How can we dominate tomorrow so that those who are paying attention will get the same sense as anyone paying attention today?

We can WIN this thing, folks! Kerry, the "strong closer", has brought his "A" game! It's up to us to SEAL THE DEAL!

1. Time to go positive...
and hopeful. The new commercials ("Heroes" and "Your Hands") are the right ad strategy; now Kerry needs an upbeat, future looking speech to get on the news.

2. dem surrogates hold media's feet to the fire about halliburton & hmx
whenever we get someone on a show, have them put pressure on the host/network to spend as much time on explosives story as they did on swiftboatslime.

3. The Al QaQaa story will come to a head tomorrow...............
they'll show the seals on the munitions bunkers thus shattering Bush's last defense for not being grossly negligent in the prosecution of the Iraq war. He's in deep shit now with the Halliburton story and Iraq. He's freaking toast. He will never be able to recover from this and Rove has nothing that he can throw and make stick against Kerry. It's over.

4. Keep hammering!!
Keep on hammering!

As long as * is on the defensive, he's not on the offensive!

The more he backpedals, the more his campaign has to struggle for excuses, the worse he looks. He's not fast on his feet. Once he's struggling, he needs to be hammered.

5. Stay vigilant.
Every time something crops up, like the "Bush bird" video, disseminate it like crazy. Hammer the media to cover things like the missing explosives. It's been people sitting at their computers all over the world that have gotten so many of these stories into the MSM, where they should be.
