1. This might be a good thing to email the Kerry campaign - they need to
start seriously countering all of the BS about Kerry's flip-flops coming from *. And they need to do this fast, as * is ready to bombard the air waves with this crapola.

3. True
I've been disheartened that the flip flop charges have not been responded to vigorously.

5. Kerry's not going to be able to respond to ANYTHING Bush throws at him
Edited on Wed Mar-10-04 09:31 AM by rocknation
as long as the mainstream media in Bush's pocket. He'll be lucky if gets as much coverage as Kucinich did. All we can do is call the media outlets and complain that they're not being fair and balanced.

2. The issue isn't "flip-flops". It's * getting caught in lies.
Plain and simple. THAT'S what has to be emphasized until January 20, 2005.

4. they also need to call to relevance
the time-table for Kerry's supposive "flip-flops" and Bush's. What happened 10 years ago is not relevant now, especially in light of what happened on 9-11. Kerry's votes don't matter from 10 years ago, however, Bush's "flip-flops" have been in the last 3 years.

Gotta keep an eye on those GOPers--they know how to distort the truth, 'cause that's all they have!
