If Bush gets real nasty tonight,
his campaign is saying he will come out really tough & on the attack.

I think Kerry should fight back, but he should use the opportunity to turn it against Shrub.

He should tell the audience, This is why America is divided. We are here to answer the peoples questions, & not to demonize & distort our opponent.

I think that would win points big time! Any thoughts?

2. I think it sounds good
Kerry needs to address the audience and the American people.

6. A big shipment of ammo arrived just in time!
Kerry can cream that stupid shit as hard as he wants to,
he holds all the cards.
I think he will play it cool. bush will look like a fool.

3. That's good , Leilani!
I'm thinking Kerry will have great comebacks, too, for the spoiled rat.

Kerry is so intelligent, and articulate but with killer instincts!

bush is burnt toast..

4. If Bush gets nasty his hopes are over
He needs to 'attack' but if he seems nasty, or unfair, or if Kerry can just ONCE show his attack to be suspect. He's lost the race, Kerry will take a 5 pt bounce and run with it to the finish line.

8. Bunnypants Tried Too Hard For The "Zinger"
I expect he's got a trick bag full...just like Chenney did...ready to zap now and worry what happens later. Chenney almost pulled it off with the "never met you line".

I'm sensing Bunnypants will "work hard" at winning that audience. He'll shuck and jive with 'em...be real folksy, then turn 180 when he blasts Kerry. It takes someone with a lot of skill to pull that off...this boy doesn't have it.

He's gonna try real hard...maybe too hard. The fluidity of his speech will show his ease or unease and hopefully Kerry will read him as well this debate as he did the last and just wear him down and out.

9. I really think he can make Shrub look like the
little man he really is.

I hope he has the opportunity to show how MEAN Shrub is.

11. That a what I think
but the Bush Spinners are saying he will be tough.

Maybe its just spin, & he will try charm.

Bring it ON!

13. He's gonna be folksy, not nasty. He's "their" President...
and although his opponent has certain beliefs that he's entitled to have, is is "their" President who is protecting them from the ter'rists, and the job's not done. He's got plans. Big plans.

Expect him to invoke CHENEY's name. Everyone knows that's who runs the country.

14. If Bush tries to pull that shit, Kerry should ridicule him as
often as he can because the little turd has been asking for it all week. Only he should do it calmly and, if possible, politely. ha
