Why the Kerry surge is good for us, bad for Bush.

[Gringo]

I haven't seen dem voters coalesce so naturally, so quickly and strongly as they have around John Kerry. Not to put down his record, but I rally think the surge, as well as the record high turnouts in all primary states are a wonderful harbinger of party unity and enthusiasm for getting Bush OUT. He seems to have won handily in TN and VA tonight, showing he DOES have some strength in the south.

Kerry was not my first choice, but I've long admired him, and am willing to forgive his IWR vote for the sake of removing Bush from office.

If Clark were in the same position now, I'd be talking about forgiving his shameless cheerleading of the war on CNN last year.

For whatever reason, democratic voters have made their will clear. It's time to solidify that unity, rally around Kerry, and start working on giving him a DEMOCRATIC congress so we can reverse the horrible damage Bush & co. have done to this country!

I thought the topic was "general" enough.

Sorry - I hate reading rules...
