Guest Cerebus Report post Posted June 29, 2004 One thing I find funny about Nader... He claims that Moore is getting too close to the Dems. Forgive me if I find that quite ironic. PS. He called Mikey fat too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Well according to you ANY criticism to Bush is a misconception. Also, I am gonna call bullshit on the "people assume the economy is bad.....etc..." I don't know what "media" you are watching, but the news shows I watch everynight keep DESPERATELY trying to put out the notion that are economy is "booming" and very robust. Which is a laugh and half in itself..... "heard their neighbors have been doing badly" well assuming neighbors still talk, I don't think it would much of "hearing" more like, seeing so for themselves. It's a laugh --- provided one ignores every figure put out. But, hey, if you love living with your head buried in the sand, have fun. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vyce 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Hell, the moment Kerry stops being invisible, he's doomed as is. -=Mike oddly, I'd have to agree with you. It definately seems that Kerry's ratings go up the most in "the polls" when he is silent/invisible and Bush is just left to screwing up as usual(well in my opinion) but the minute Kerry actually speaks up on it his numbers seem to drop down again. Maybe Kerry should just keep silent until the debates and let Bush seal his own defeat.... People will talk about Bush all they want, and make remarks about him "defeating himself", but how damning is it for a party when people like your candidate more when he does nothing but stay in the background and remain silent? And how sad is it for America that the alternative to the incumbent is a guy who we like less the more we see of him? well from everyone I have heard on this board, Kerry is a lackluster candidate at best, no one has claimed he is a savior, however Bush continues to show why Kerry can just sit back and shut the hell up, and still make it a close election. The problem is, though, eventually Kerry has to come out of hiding and start campaigning, and then people will realize how he has absolutely no platform other than "I'm not Bush." Despite what some Democrats believe, that may be enough to shore of the party base, but it's not enough to win the election. Democrats also have to hope that people will ignore Kerry's many, MANY faults. And it won't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2004 As I said, he has a platform other than that. He's got plenty of proposed plans and whatnot, and you could find them if you bothered to take the time and head over to johnkerry.com. But, I guess stuff like... bothering to research primary sources!?!!... is beyond you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
