Candidates should tread carefully but for the rest of us this is war
Edited on Fri Aug-20-04 09:28 PM by bigtree
I've been one that has advocated that Kerry not allow himself to be held down in the mud for the duration of the campaign. He needs to present a positive vision that responds to voter's actual needs and concerns.

But, for those of us who are directly affected by bush failures, arrogant abuses of civil liberties, needless deaths of loved ones in a manufactured war; denial of basic human rights; attempts to take away overtime pay; indifference to health care needs; subject to the destruction of the environment by a reckless; business oriented administration; belittled and beaten down; this fight is personal and vital.

I believe we should not hold back our anger. We should not disguise our contempt. We should not be dissuaded from aggressive attacks. We should fight tooth and nail until we dislodge (with force, if necessary) this traitorous band of theives and miscreants from our offices of government. No holds barred.

Just a thought.

on edit: Ok, force is out, but you get my drift.
