I have a relative that lives in IOWA. typically a repuke BUT>>>>>
my relative thinks Edwards is Calm and smart and his wife is a "neat lady"

She is going to read about his platform and will be the first time she has ever done more than just vote for who her church says to vote for

This is

This from someone who believes Obama is a "muslim" and God doesn't want "that type" ruling America.. and used to think that Huckleberry would be good because he was a "baptist preacher"




Progress ladies and gents This is PROGRESS

4. If she's the type who thinks God doesn't want Obama running America, she will get about
two paragraphs into Edwards' platform before she runs away screaming.

5. Funny, it turns out that if you have a very populist message...
...that resonates with not just democrats, but with everyone. Even republicans are sick of the corporate lobbyists writing legislation and financing campaigns. Some republicans even see the benefit of universal health care. Maybe we'd convert more republicans by actually standing for something instead of playing to the middle and standing for nothing. I know, sounds crazy doesn't it?

And as a final note, how many republicans do we see expressing interest in Hilary or Obama?

8. Obama has a 39% approval rating among Republicans. That's by far the highest of any Dem.
In head-to-heads, Obama generally polls ten points higher among Republicans than either Edwards or Hillary.

9. Why
that is crazy! Actually stand for something that may be beneficial to mankind? There must be a cog missing in your transmission boy. The only thing that works with these dumb ass 'mericans is to threaten them with their lives if they vote for anybody but us repulsives. Boy, you are never going to get anywhere with that kind of nonsensical thought patterns. You might as well line up with the liberals and kiss your ass goodbye in this coming election. We are going to take the presidency and we are going to gain control of the House and Senate by a large margin.


Sincerely,

Karl Rove
