Who doesn't agree this would be a knockout idea for Kerry....and WHY
Advertisements [?]
I would give almost anything to see this Monday.

Kerry picks the location where he knows he will have the most possible exposure on television...maybe even put out a press release bulletin that he has a special announcement to make.

When he has the attention of the entire United States, and maybe the world, he would look right into the camera like he did on the debate and say, building almost to a shouting crescendo:


I know the Bush campaign would prefer that I definitely would not address this directly. But I think the American people would be more outraged that I did not have the anger to condemn what we were forced to witness this past Friday.

So Bin Laden, I have called this announcement so I can speak directly to you. And I am talking directly to you right now Osama Bin Laden. I want to be sure you get this message.

You have just unequivocally and blatantly admitted on worldwide television that "you" were responsible for masterminding the worst terror attack ever committed on US soil. So Bin Laden I want you to hear this, and hear me clearly. If the American people elect me to be their president on November 2nd, you will not be on television making appearances and thumbing your nose at the United States of America. If the citizens of America send me to Washington, you will be running for your life. I will assemble the best intelligence and superior military resources America has in it's possession. We will unite our allies at our side, and we will organize the most intensive manhunt in history. We will hunt you down wherever you are, we will find you--I promise you that we will find you...and we will capture you or we will kill you.

You have been responsible for an atmosphere of fear that has pervaded our very lives. And you shall no longer. You have had three years to avoid justice for your unspeakable acts of havoc on America. If I am made president of these United States, you will be my number 1 military priority, and your reign of terror shall end. The American people will find you, we'll bring you to justice and you will pay for your barbaric acts. As will we bring to justice any other network, group or individual whose intent or will is to committ terror in the world. Americans will not live in fear any longer. That is not only my message to you Osama Bin Laden, that is my promise to you.


I'm telling you, you would hear people leaping to their feet and screaming approval for Kerry in their living rooms. You would hear it from New York to California. Bush could bitch all he wanted about it. There wouldn't be time to do anything. Kerry would captivate the nation. The election would be a landslide cinch.
