Carole King re Kerry: "I'm Coming Up, You Better Get This Party Started!"
Edited on Fri Jan-16-04 02:59 AM by Raya
Carole King, Singer and Kerry supporter on C-Span Jokes: New theme song for Kerry Campaign “I’m coming up, So you better get this party started!”

http://entertainment.msn.com/album/?album=615617

Pretty funky!

What if Kerry shocks the system and gets his vote out on Monday?

Could the party quickly rally around the tall guy and get down to beating Bush?

Are Dean’s kids and Internet supporters willing to organize behind Kerry the way they have behind Dean?

Get The Party Started

Written by L Perry
I'm coming up
So you better get this party started
I'm coming up
So you better get this party started

Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody's waiting for me to arrive
Sending out the message to all of my friends
We'll be looking flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lots of style, check my gold diamond rings
I can go for miles if you know what I mean
. . . . . .
Pumping up the volume, breaking down to the beat
Cruising through the west side
We'll be checking the scene
Boulevard is freaking as I'm coming up fast
. . . . . .
Making my connection as I enter the room
Everybody's chillin' as I set up the groove
Pumping up the volume with this brand new beat
Everybody's dancing and they're dancing for me
I'm your operator, you can call any time
I'll be your connection to the party line
I'm coming up
So you better get this party started
(I'm coming up, uh huh)
I'm coming up
So you better get this party started

1. If EITHER Edwards or Kerry were to win on Monday......
I think they become the INSTANT front runner, and possibly could carry enough momentum to blow away everyone else, quickly.

2. I think Edwards is still a long shot...
but Kerry could come out on top. In that case, I agree that he would gain instant front runner status. I wonder if his NH poll numbers would rebound from such an outcome?

4. I believe "Edwards" MO is a Big Media Tactic to avoid focusing on Kerry

Kerry is the story that was cancelled. Watch them talk about
Dean falling or whether Clark will beat him. Dean/Clark and the Clintons is the "Official Story."

5. Definately
If Kerry is able to make this kind of come back in Iowa expect him to take a huge jump in the polls- and not only in NH.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but man, I'm giddy over this.

9. You *should* be giddy, curse10!
I'm really excited for you guys. Kerry's amazing, and he has my full support if he goes the distance.

:-)

3. Should start blasting this at rallies. Could be a youth draw. Dean too!

8. I couldn't imagine a cheesier theme song for Kerry.
I dig Kerry very, very much, but somehow "Kerry" and "get this party started" just spells mock-worthy disaster to me.

Interesting, though....
