Do you think Kerry has something up his sleave?
Much like moron with his fake terror alert after the DNC to stop Kerry from any sort of bounce, do you think Kerry has anything that they will launch at the close of the RNC?

1. Yes he has, but
those in the know are not allowed to divulge just yet. Stay tuned. Sorry.

12. don't be too sure ....
Voters such as Gloria Smith explain this political dynamic. While Smith's husband, who works for American Airlines, recently took an $800 monthly pay cut, the homemaker from Sand Springs, Okla., just changed her voter registration from Democrat to Republican.

Smith said her family was "better off" than it was four years ago, "because we've learned to live within our means."

6. Wednesday's Kerry Defense Speech either gets good media coverage, or
proves media bias once and for all.

Granted proving that our media is controlled by right wing GOP liars is not a big deal - but the Wednesday speech will the final nail if it gets short coverage.

11. He has Iran Contra up his sleeve, and with Bushco's insistance that
we should investigate Iran's weapons program. I wonder why on Earth Bushco would want to do such a thing, but go ahead and let 'um cause Kerry put that chink in their armor years ago.

23. It's all uphill after the Repug Love Fest
Edited on Mon Aug-30-04 05:37 PM by DoYouEverWonder
Just relax, take a chill pill.

The corporate owned media is giving it everything they've got, to prop up the Boy King for the Convention.

Next week reality will start to hit, and Kerry will be wiping the floor with W's by November.

Now, in the meantime, quite moaning and go do something useful. ;-)

9. Special Legislative Session


The House and Senate will be called in for reasons of national security. John will take command of the Senate for the session making Butch look like a little child and will launch right into the presidency. Welcome president Kerry!

29. Right
I keep hearing Kerry has a plan, he has something up his sleeves. I don't believe Kerry has anything up his sleeve. I believe he has not been getting good advice and that his campaign is not going well.

30. Al Gore won
the debates yet the media acted as if he had lost. They will try to do this to Kerry also unless Bush does especially bad.

25. Yah...
my local news showed him windsurfing. I know he needs a break, but is during the repub. convention the best time! I mean the other local news channel didn't even mention Kerry. Is it really best to let the repugs go unchallenged at their convention?

18. Kittty Kelley's new book cost Doubleday $1 mil in lawyer vetting
and will be out in a couple of weeks. I hope the Kerry campaign is prepared for whatever bombshells it contains.

19. No, it seems the Dems think that by playing nice they
will not alienate "swing" voters, many of whom voted for Bush in 2000.

27. He better, but I doubt it
First, he should fire his staff.

Then, he should start fighting like he actually wants the job
