So ...are Kerry and Rangel doing a Full Frontal Assault on Bush/Cheney?
With Kerry taking on Bush as a "ignorant" who screwed up Iraq...and Rangel going after Cheney..with his SOB comment..saying "we are friends but he's wrong on Tax Cuts because Repugs "Tax Cuts" don't expire until 20l0...and we DEMS "want to go after the ATM TAX and go after those who don't pay taxes."

Is this Battle of Kerry vs. Bush and Rangel vs. Cheney a magnificent Dem ATTACK BACK? A NEW STRATEGY...or is it "Accidental."

I don't remember MEDIA covering any Dem (including Kerry) when they go stump for a Dem Candidate. Instead MSM follows the "Codpiece" around hanging on his every Texas Twang statement as if it's a Greek Philosopher!

So...question is: "Was this a GREAT PLOY by Dems to get attention to ISSUES or a "flub up" that worked to Dems Advantage even if we had to "hustle" because the MSM was scouring for a "mis-step" statement from a Dem they could JUMP ON?

I'd like to think it's GREAT DEM STRATEGY! :D

1. Kerry's comment rings true with nervous parents of teenagers
all over the place. I hope that he keeps it up, I particularly like the part about the "stuffed suit" snow job.

3. We're actually showing backbone and defending one of our own?

4. LOL's...Great Halloween Kitty you got there! But, yeah it might be
great Blow Back on the Repugs with Strategy. At least Rangel going after Cheney seems very calculated. The more that comes out about Kerry's comment could mean that he didn't expect his comment to be taken by the Idiot Repugs the way it way...so it's possible he didn't know it would be picked up...but wouldn't it be very CLEVER if he did? Or, took a chance ...just in case any Repug Op was looking for something to focus on?

Either way it gives more time to Dems....or might seem like "Grandstanding."

It's hard to know now how it will play out... But, standing up for DEMS should be TOP PRIORITY FOR DEMS!!! One would think...anyway. :eyes:
