48. Agree with most of your post, but
I do not agree that it is time to call a halt to the primaries and annoint Kerry as our candidate.

We need to keep the media focused on the Dem candidates because once we choose a nominee, they will try to slaughter him.

Most of the Dem candidates are challenging the Smirk everyday. This makes the news and opens some minds. Without these candidates dissing Bush, the media will focus on bringing down Kerry. They will be relentless.

Once the summer is here and a candidate chosen, we must remember that getting rid of Bush has to be done before we can do anything about our loss of freedom and the special interests that buy and blackmail almost all politicians.

We MUST join together and vote for the Dem nominee. Then in 2008, maybe we will have the luxury of voting for someone we truly agree with.

Without the defeat of Bush, we don't stand a chance of getting back our country.

Is Kerry my first choice? Hell, no. Dean wasn't either even though I voted for him in the SC primary. MY type of candidate doesn't win elections in the US yet. But the push to the left cannot start until Bush is gone.
