66. I'm suggesting that Kerry do more of what he did on Hardball. If you are

unhappy with his performance therein write the campaign.

I am suggesting that Kerry be honest and talk in less lofty terms.

I am suggesting that Kerry be a political opponent to Bush and Co.

I am suggesting that Kerry motivate voters by being straight with them.

I am not suggesting that he tout his desire to break up the media, because THAT is what led to Dean's defeat.

Kerry benefited from the Dean media take down so thank Mr. Murdoch won't you?

"Dean was stripped of half his popular support in the space of two weeks in January while John Kerry – tied in the polls with Carol Moseley-Braun at seven percent just two months earlier – rose like a genie from a bottle to become the overnight presidential frontrunner. Both candidates were shocked and disoriented by the dizzying turns of fortune, and for good reason. Neither Dean nor Kerry had done anything on their own that could have so dramatically altered the race. Corporate America decided that Dean must be savaged, and its media sector made it happen."
