2. WTF? Did you hear him? |
|
My 85 year old mother-in-law called me to tell me how strong he came out against Bush. Sorry, he is very ready. I hope others will follow.

12. No. I don't have cable. I'm just going by all the buzz this has caused |
|
and it's not good. No matter what he meant. We can't give them this kind of fodder because they are desperate and will take anything and turn it against us. The hypocrisy is lost to most people.

15. Then go look up the transcript and try to refrain from commenting |
|
until you've read it, 'kay? Kerry was aces and did bring the war back around front and center.

18. I'll delete my post. I know how you feel. I'm just as upset as all of you, is all. |
|
I was responding to the perception, not to what he was trying to say. That's all that matters at the end of the day in the world of politics. And we have no margin for error.

23. we have no margin for error.... well then fuck us. and know this clearly |
|
our dems are as human as any one else, and to suggest they have no margin of error is unrealistic and unattainable. so you can say we have no margin of error all you want. no ONE will achieve perfection. aint gonna happen any time any where. reality is..... we will fuck up along with everyone else. we do it way less than the repugs, that is the BEST we have

28. hugs. i hear it in your post. we dems really gotta quit with the expectation |
|
of perfection because the nedia demands it from us. does not help our dems. i understand why we do, but i dont allow it, becuase we will not be. we have to demand support..... whne we KNOW we are being manipulated.... as wrong as it is what media does and as much of a reality is that viewers are effected, we just have to look at what kerry idd today, and say, hope this will work
generally the dem doesnt even get the media time. then they are blamed for not speaking out
i dont know how many dems demand the dem plan,.... yet i have seen dems come up with plans consistantly over hte years
dems here attacked kerry for not having a plan during campaign, yet that was the boring speech they said he had... a 4 point planon education, iraq, health care and small business
that is up being absorbed in the rove and media manipulation. and personally... i refuse and call it each and everytime

24. Don't worry about it; you've explained yourself. But this thread |
|
was started in response to Kerry's retort about all the slamming he was getting. You had to hear it to appreciate it.

All the "buzz" last Thursday night was that Jim Webb's campaign was over. We see by the polls how that turned out.

This guy is intelligent and right on the issues but has a tendency to offer up huge softballs for the GOP slime machine to whack at. Its unbelievable!

on his FAILED Iraq policy.
Imagine that.

|
compared ALL OF dimson's verbal faux pas that he never gets lambasted for compared to one messed-up joke by Kerry.

|
They turned the conversation right over - asking if * should apologize for all the mistakes he's made?

9. Rove's October Surprise: John Kerry |
|
Preaching to the converted, alienating the undecided. Why couldn't he have stayed out of view for just 9 more days?

20. We are not the electorate |
|
We are the choir. I don't think his message will sway the undecided. Indeed, he may have turned some people off. This was not the time for a speech like this - it was a time to coast to victory.

Now isn't the time? When would be? It hasn't been done enough imo.

30. Baloney! People are forming their opinion on who to vote for based |
|
primarily on this war. Why not hear the dirty rotten ugly truth for a change? That might help them form their opinion.

34. Whether he mis-spoke or not is not the issue. |
|
We don't let KKKarl chose his topic of the day
We don't let the slime our guys (and gals) without takin' a whippin' too.
We don't follow their lead, speak their talking points or back down one inch. Those days are over!
Senator Kerry has been tireless in working for the party and candidates all over the country. He's had our backs and now we'll have his as he's earned it. That's how it works.
