I'm still pissed about the Kerry campaign sitting on its hands

[rockydem]

when Bushco attacked using the flip-flopping charge, the liberal charge, the Swift Vets - they threw everything, including the kitchen sink at Kerry and the campaign acted like it would all just pass. Those attacks were fucking damaging and Bush was repeating them every chance he got and they were all over the media and very rarely would you ever hear a Democratic response to them. Often the attacks were outright lies and distortions, AND EASILY PROVABLE AS SUCH, and yet they went fucking unaddressed.

They should have defended themselves, and done it in a way that turned it back on the Bushies, turned it into an offense. It could have been done. But alas, we got pussies running our party.
