I was feeling pretty confident about Florida last week. Is this all because of the smear campaign?

1. I think it has to do with Charley

Charley helped out Bush.

3. That Bastard thrive on catastrophes.

The worst it is, the stronger he gets.

2. Smears work

Especially for the 5-10% undecideds who hear all the hoopla, don't spend enough time trying to figure it out and decide "something is wrong".

I'd like to see the dems run ads telling the truth about Bush*s ghastly excuse for a life. The truth is all we would need to tell. It's worse than fiction.

5. as I heard on C-Span recently

as I heard froma caller on C-Span recently-------All those men attacking Kerry, there are so many of them, they can't ALL be lying.

6. I hate that

Why do people find it so hard to believe that a group of people can all be liars? Especially since none of them have any proof, and in fact, have contradicted things they said in the past?

I've seen this "they can't all be liars" thing over and over again lately. Another RW talking point being mindlessly repeated.

7. Maybe we should start repeating that

Bush is a cocaine snorting, national guard deserter. We can't ALL be liars!

4. Fluctuation

Florida voters are flakier than most. The margin of error needs to be adjusted accordingly.

8. if I lived in florida and was polled

I'd say I was voting for bush, just to see if it would lessen the harrassment of people planning to vote for kerry.

if the rethugs think their getting florida, they might leave the rest of us alone.
