Anybody see Shields & Brooks on the Newshour tonight.?
I swear these guys got some inside scoop on whats going to go down the next few weeks.

They seemed to be signaling that the gloves will come off and it will get seriously nasty during these last weeks of the campaing.

It was almost like Shields had inside info on some PR hit planned for Teresa Kerry...he sort of hinted at it as a "hypothetical".

2. Wouldn't doubt it. Repukes have been to quiet about Teresa
I'm sure they've saved the best for last. And if they get her angry....oh, boy. They only know how to play in the sewer and what I've seen so far still hasn't been deep enough in the sewer for them.

3. The Rethugs know how to play dirty and if they pull out the stops....
so will Teresa. She said it herself.

4. They're planning a hit on Heinz Kerry?
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 09:26 PM by high density
Is this a new low or what? Are they sure they want to go down that road after what Laura Bush did? (hmm, pardon the pun.)

7. They've been saying the things Shields suggested for months
Shields was way off base tonight. All that high road moralistic crap about Cheney's daughter was ridiculous.

10. "Repulsed, repulsed!!"
This is what Shields was saying the Democrats where expressing about the Mary Cheney issue.

Yeah, I'm repulsed alright, maybe Mr. Shields didn't understand why these so-called Democrats where "repulsed".

8. I wish they would call them BrookShields
Ok, no real point there, but it amuses moi. :)

Expect the rethugs not only to go into the gutter these last weeks, but right into the sewer. You don't need inside info to know what these people will do when their backs are against the wall.

9. I hope they do
for I remember Kerry saying that if Bush brought family into it, then everything would be on the table, all rules were off.

I wonder if the whole Cheney family deal was to goad them into saying something nasty about the Kerry family, just so Kerry could kick Bush's ass in public, fully justified...

11. Yeah, I listened tonight.

They said we're entering phase three, the nasty mudslinging, gloves-off, truly ugly part of the campaign. Here's how they divide it up:
1. conventions
2. debates
3. nasty, desperate campaigning
4. voter turnout on election day.

I think they forgot one or two:
5. media calling the winner prematurely
6. protracted vote count
7. SCOTUS decision
