it's gonna be a LANDSLIDE for Kerry!
i'm convinced,i know in my heart of hearts we will WIN this thing.they will be SHOCKED at the amount of people who are sick of the bullshit and lies.the only thing those bastards have to look forward to are the blanket pardons on the way out.then we'll have to come up with a law to prevent convicted felons from holding federal office,so we don't have shitbags like Poindexter running things.FUCK YOU SCUMBAGS! we're gonna run you outta town on a rail after we tar and feather your sorry asses...

43. w00t
It's the way script kiddies write the Homer Simpson exclamation "woohoo!"

Also "w00t," if you want to sound really 1337.

4. Assuming the election is legitimate and verified....
...I'm inclined to agree with you. I can count on one hand the number of people I know who are still standing proudly behind this moron, and I live in a very conservative/Republican area.

I think that press conference did wonders for us.

9. I want a defeat that humiliates Bush
For once, I want to hear Schneider et al unable to spin it, unable to ask, "What hurt the Democrats? Why do people love Bush*?" and forced to say, "Why do people hate this president so much? Well let's see, he screwed the environment, tanked the economy, undermined the Bill of Rights, and got us into a reckless, unnecessary, bloody, expensive war... So even though people really love this president and his moral clarity, these things may have hurt him in the voting booth."

I just want him humiliated!!

11. how come there's always shitty polls, like Kerry behind in NJ?
Every time I turn around a new poll comes out that's like a big fist coming out of the computer monitor. Fucken New Jersey? Shit, Al carried NJ by a whopping margin, and they whisked Frank Lautenberg back in. Now they say Kerry is struggling there. What the f--k?

I hope you're right, however. Nothing would warm my heart more than your post being true. If it happens I promise to go to church the Sunday after the election, and pray to my god.

12. From your keyboard to God's monitor.
I'm afraid, mostly because our opponents will stop at nothing. We have to play fair so we don't have the cheating, overall dishonesty to manipulate to our advantage or incumbency. Kerry's team has to play like Olympians.

13. Some days I believe you.
Yesterday riding home on the bus I was reading Clarke's book. One man asked me if it was good. I, of course, said yes and then he asked if it would be enjoyed by a bush hater. That made me smile, I could tell by the way he said it he included himself as one.
Pretty soon a bunch of people on the bus were talking about all the anti-bush books that had come out recently and the were all very down on bush. And I live in conservative Nebraska.

44. Yes, and Edwards winning the primary put fear in the Bush...
Dole heart. Jesse Helms is probably going nuts, he knows how powerful Edwards is. You can smell the fear by them not mentioning Edwards. They know if Edwards becomes Vice, the state could be lost.
I love their fear and they are blowing money on commercials. I think the polls are fixed too, I think Kerry is doing better than they want us to know. I have Republican friends also that are speaking up about Bush and not too happy.

17. to people who are gloomy and doomy
listen up: that poll: 1,201 adults conducted April 15-18. The margin of error was plus or minus three percentage points.

well, it took them pollsters 3 days to get the results they wanted.3 days to get bush in the lead by what.3 or 4 points.....1201 is not alot of people.another poll had 675 people polled.......shows how desperate the republicans are to get bushs numbers up.....

its all a farce to make people believe that bush is still ahead.most people don't even READ the number of people polled....

21. Voting machines
It's reality. They stole the last election. Gore got more votes than Bush, but who sits in? I'm not saying voting machines rigged that last election, no, Republican officials did and the stances of Gore lost him votes on the left that the party somehow feels it earned. No, voting machines have stolen a NATIONAL election yet, but they have stolen state elections, from what I've seen.

What I'm basically saying is, get ready for the corruption of the 2000 election multiplied, b/c they have found a more efficient method.

No, even though Bush made a complete fool of himself, he still went up in the polls.

America is truly fucked up when:

-William Hung has a record deal

-Ahnult is governor of Cali

-A war chimp who is told by God to "free people" is our President

31. Well, I'll certainly agree with you
I think Kerry is playing it very smart right now, and I also believe that Nader will join the Kerry campaign. Remember, our big advantage was before Nader joined the race. Add his points and Kerry's and you've still got Kerry doing great. No pessimism here, just admiration for the way he's playing this. Must have some very smart people around him, like, maybe the king and queen of campaigners, Hill and Bill?

33. I would agree with you...BUT
I went to the Sheraton Bal Harbor rally and fundraiser that John Kerry spoke at. In attendance was Kerry, Edwards, Graham, Nelson, and many others. Kerry almost put me to sleep, the crowd was small and unenthusiastic, and people were even walking out during the speech. I am discouraged.

So if I get accused of damping everyone's spirits, I am just telling you the truth. Kerry was boring Tuesday night, people were unenthusiastic, and the turnout was bad. Kerry needs to get some personality. He comes across as a robot.

41. Kerry is now advertising heavily in Florida
Even in Northern Florida, which is more Republican, the ads are coming far more ofrten than Bush ads. In fact Teresa Kerry is coming to my town, and There is a very big sign up welcoming the Next First Lady of the United States, Teresa Kerry, on an enourmous sign that overlooks the largest East West Road in the city. This is one of these cities with the signs authored by God, all sorts of fundamentalist christian messages every three feet, and which has a population that is 65 percent Republican to 35 percent Democrat. I suppose this is the most Republican City in the state, and there was massive public outcry about the evil MoveOn.com commercials about Bush being played here and I think they may actually have been pulled here due to this outcry, as I have not seen them for a month, but Kerry advertisments are comin every half hour, and I havnt seen nearly as many Bush adverts. Kerry very likely has the south of this state sewed up, but this is also a town with several military bases, and I know a large number of military grunts who are not happy with Iraq and the extensions of serve. REALLY unhappy.

Anyway, Kerry is polling higher than Bush in this state in most polls, but just barely. A lot of military families here can hardly live with the loss in salaries due to reservist being called up and I had spoekn to numbers of people waiting to go to Iraq who were trying to find out about how to run to Canada, because they didnt mind defending the U.S. against enemies, but never expected to go fighting in Iraq over bullshit. A lor of unhappy enlisted men and women here.

I'm a Strong football fan, and I can tell you about many, many guaranteed wins that were lost due to over confidence!

I know this is no football game, but the same logic applies.

Keep fighting as if you were the underdog, and don't let up until the inauguration!
