1. lol, funny juxtaposition
One, a war hero who proudly served his country.

The other, a robotic cheerleader who has been handed everything in life.

5. but he's OUR fratboy
so it's better for some reason? I don't know fraternity membership won't matter since they'll both be wearing suits and not the outfits in the pictures above.

Gawd, they are both elites - so I'm sorry the original post is a silly point to be making.

6. Bush, apparently, was a frat boy till he was 40...
Kerry, on the other hand, wasn't.

7. There won't be any debates.
Bush may be that stupid, but Rove isn't.

9. Shrub screwed either way.
If he gets on stage, Kerry will crucify him. If he refuses, Kerry calls him a coward and talks about the AWOL thing.

Bush can only win if the Media help him.

10. There are ALWAYS debates
Not debating hurts Bush worse than debating, now matter how poorly he stacks up against Kerry. Not debating would seem like the worse kind of hiding -- it would kill Bush politically.

11. Me, too.
Unfortunately, that contrast doesn't always work out the way people think it should. If war heroes always beat out people who didn't fight, McGovern would have won in 1972 and Dole would have won in 1996. If you compared 21 year-old Bob Dole with 21 year-old Bill Clinton, Dole looks much more impressive. But would you have wanted him as President? Goodness no.

This election should be about why Kerry will lead the nation in a better direction than Pretzel Boy, not because of what each of them were doing in their early twenties.

18. It'll be just like last time
The Democratic candidate will attempt to address facts and issues and Dubya will smirk and lie.
