GOP "frustrated" that Kerry won't fall into their propaganda trap.
Just listen to the media whores as they "outline" the political issues. They keep reiterating, ad infinitum, how Kerry has no message and won't address the issues in Iraq or on terror. Fact is, Kerry keeps rising in the polls despite GOP and rightwing media spins. Kerry's not allowing * to deflect attention from this admin's crimes and ineptitude onto him, by taking the bait. Kerry has great policies for getting out of Iraq, as well as combating terrorism. But the bushistas want him to become unglued about these issues on national t.v. Sadly, for the neocons, Kerry just won't cooperate. :D

If Kerry chooses Clark for VP, we wipe the floor with *. :bounce:

3. They will keep telling us why we don't like Kerry
until the votes are cast. Then they will tell us why we all
made a mistake....

And yes it drives me nuts

9. Close nadinbrzezinski, but not entirely acurate..........
"They will keep telling us why we don't like Kerry" until the votes are cast. Then they will tell us how we all wised up and voted for Bush using those wonderful electronic voting machines! ;)

"From the bunker, day # nnn"?

"Terrorists in the WH, day # nnn"?

"The French-looking occupation, day # nnn"?

13. It would be in their best interests if they "read" the Weld/Kerry debates
Edited on Thu May-13-04 05:50 PM by rebellious woman
whereas Weld remarked "kerry was a tough man to run
against".....Far behind Weld, in polls, constituents
split Kerry won hands down. The debates were another
story....however; few people in todays world research
their candidates and go on only PR and tv hype. It
seems average gender has a five minute attention
span. I find that sad, but true, one learns so
much from researching.

16. You are right - if he comments on Iraq, they attack, if he doesn't...
...they attack. They are trying to put him in a no win situation, but he seems to be doing ok still, if a little bit on the quiet side.

He needs to listen to them only to find ways to beat them better, not to let them dictate his statements or actions.
