Now Rove is desperate, what might he do? |
|
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 07:58 PM by skip fox
The explosives story has lasted all week and today's confirmation by KSTC, the St. Paul ABC affiliate (with FINE and cautious reporting, by the way), coupled with all the spin from the administration for the past four days, has insured that the story will live strongly through the weekend.
Rove & Co. have to leave the defensive and gain the offensive. How? They can't have any credibility floating other possibilities about the missing explosives. They have to claim the problem is small and go on. But what with?
They have to trot out a story which will really over-shadow the missing explosives.
What would that be? Something on the order of their lame terror tape? Probably not.
All I can figure is a nasty personal attack. Watch for a Monday morning disclosure that Kerry, in the past, has done something horrific. It will be completely false but too complicated to unravel in only a few days.
The terror tape makes me hopeful. It might be a sign that they've shot their wad. It has the smell of desperation to it.
But . . . I hope Kerry's people are watching Rove like a hawk. Right now he's a cornered rat, which means we've really got to keep out guard up.

Watch for a TV ad showing Kerry in bed with a goat, or some such drivel.
They'll make more stuff up to drop some stink bomb at the end that will make Kerry appear untouchable, unthinkable....that's my prediction anyway.

10. He Will Whimper, Mr. Fox |
|
It is all he is now capable of. He is a hugely over-rated critter: a regional player, not a national one. He is out of his depth in this contest....

13. Find "The" explosives |
|
By the time press figures out they aren't the same ones, election is over. Problem: press is not behaving like he's used to - Some will actually ask questions.

I just got an e mail from BushRecall referring to a filthy email smearing John Edwards regarding the flu vaccine shortage. Blaming it on the trial lawyers. I didn't have any new material.
I too just shudder to think what else this guy has up his friggin sleeve..

If he had anything left it would already be all over the place, Rove doesn't do defence he only does offence and they need defence.Kerry has Bush shoveling shit against the tide and it just keeps coming.
Screw Rove, I want to know what Kerry's gonna hit them with next, this is beautiful to watch.
