Does Kerry already know? (pic heavy thread)
I have been looking at the election slideshows over at Yahoo. He seems more confident and relaxed than I have ever seen him. His speeches today were amazing. He is just beaming. Could the internal polls already be giving them a hint of what's to come on Tuesday?

Check these pics out:

1. One thing I believe,
he is sleeping far more peacefully than *Bush is this evening.

On a side note, man does the Big Dog look rough.

Here is hoping for his speedy recovery.

Been away awhile and haven't seen pictures of him since his surgery.

Kind of shocked.

9. Yep the Big Dog is looking thin and pale.
However, he looks exactly like my dad did after his bypass surgery.

He was so pale it was scary. He lost quite a bit of weight as well. I haven't seen that many people after bypass surgery so I was surprised when I saw Bill. First thing I did was call my mom and tell her to turn on the tv. The first words out of her mouth were "Oh my god he looks just like your dad did". He had his surgery about a month before Christmas and our pictures from that year are painful to look at.

Big Dog will bounce back soon. My dad did.

10. Haven't had that experiance.
But I can imagine he looks good for having had such an incredibly invasive procedure so recently.

Just used to him looking so... robust.

He usually has a glow about him.

Ok, enough gushing.

heh

33. Bill's OK
My husband had that surgery and looked like the Frankenstein monster for ages. Then, all of a sudden, everything got much better. The tonic of politics can only be helpful to a sweetheart like the Big Dog. He'll do just fine and dance at Hillary's inauguration as well as at the Kerry winner's bash.

12. Another pic of the Big Dawg...
Here's another shot from the same day:


For a man 7 weeks out of heart surgery, I think he looks awesome!

37. I do too, except that
he's got a strange, hand-shaped growth on his left shoulder. I hope it's not a tumor.

good to have you back, bill :D :toast:

27. I think the Clinton needed to get back out on the campaign trail
This is what is helping his healing process.
He needs people and loves to interact with them and to have to sit and watch it go by was killing him. He had to get out.
He does not look that bad for what type of surgury he had. Most people look much worse for far longer.

3. Wonderful pics
That is what I have been feeling. He looks and sounds great. he doesn't even seem tired at this stage of the campaign. He looks and sound like a President, a leader. On the other side * looks just awful. Tired, bloated, sweaty and whiney. Defensive and doing it poorly too.

14. And he will be our new president in 5 days!!
I am so excited, and beginning to feel so confident. He looks so wonderful in those pictures, I just cannot wait until he is the face of the presidency. It's been a long, long four years.

16. Trust me. They have data that is 100,000 x more accurate than
the polls. He knows.

Here's a nugget. Undecideds from August and September broke for Kerry big-time in October.

19. Out of pure intellectual curiousity
Did that big-time break for Kerry occur as a result of the first debate?

26. I think it has always "been there"
I think the polls hikes after the RNC (in those polls that were pumped) were the result of Rovian interference. I think the Kerry numbers were ALWAYS there.

Granted I live in California, but "Bush" has become a swear word among everyone I know. I can't imagine any but the most die-hard fundies voting for Chimpy.

23. Kerry looks better and better every day
while Bush looks worse and worse.

Here's proof:



This pic of Bush was taken on Oct. 19, 2004

28. He Does Look Happy and Confident
But admittedly, this was one day after the baseball team he's followed his entire life won its first WS in 80-some years.
