KerryFans, Give Thanks with Positive Posts. Celebrate The Magic!


Hey, fellow Duers: Isn’t it great that Bush looks so scared today. I don’t think Rove imagined Bush would be loosing by 7 points at this stage in the game. They are really put off balance by John Kerry’s amazing blaze into a nationwide front-running campaign.

Kerry Folk, let’s use all our strength to hold back from any needless attacks on the eve of this next set of primaries.

The Kerry campaign has been blessed by good fortune over the past few weeks, so let’s give thanks and try to spread a spirit of goodwill.

My own blood boils at the concocted issues that are being twisted into attacks on John Kerry.

I, and most of my colleagues, question the integrity of those promoting many of these baseless lines of attack.

I feel like posting equally bizzare counter attacks. It would be so easy.

It is really hard to avoid some of these trivial issues, but we have to try. For a few days let’s try to positively champion our candidate and redirect the passions of our fellow Dems to the challenges of grass-roots political education and mobilization.

If the weirdness continues …. Well, it probably has to be taken up at another level.

Good Luck in SC to Edward’s fans and in OK and AZ to Clark supporters. Have fun tomorrow all as we watch the results come in and think of Bush squirming at the energy among Democrats!

1. I'm actually rooting for Edwards in Sc and Clark in Oklahoma.
I think that the GOP should feel the fear at the depth of our candidates.

2. Whoa! Me too!
I like both Edwards and Clark and I think we need to have some healthy competition through this month. A win for those might give them some much needed support and scare the livin' bejeezus out of the bushies!

5. Thanks for 'getting it'...for me it's ALL about decimating the BFEE and
their GOP enablers. Taking them down is ALL that matters to me and the stronger our Dem party is the better.

9. One bonesman will never bring down his brothers.
We need to get the corruption out of OUR party before we can take on the Bush Criminal Empire. Because it's obvious they have no intention of opposing these criminal fascists.

No DLC, no PNAC, no Skull & Bones.

12. So how does that work? If Bush is a Bonesman and
Kerry is a Bonesman, doesn't one have to bring down the other?

3. It might make for better press coverage
plus if Dean keeps attacking that's good because it gets the phony charges out of the way now.

6. Make that three of us.
I like both Edwards and Clark and I like keeping a variety of Dem voices in the media pounding away at our current, intolerable state.
My only concern and it's not that big, is if Kerry loses in SC does the story become that a NE liberal can't win in the South? If the race is close will this diminish it somewhat?

4. Good luck to Kerry and all his supporters tomorrow
Kerry gives me hope that Clark can survive a media blackout and come back. Thanks for all your hard work supporting your candidate.

Wonder if Bush will be watching TV tomorrow night? Probably not...too many scary qualified Democrats on it! ("Mommy save me!")

See ya'll tomorrow night!

Go Kerry!
Go Wes!

14. NOT voting for Kerry in MA.
Rove is smart enough to know that these polls are BS. Stop using this self-congratulatory tone....

19. What are some of the concocted issues?
I haven't seen any, I don't think. I've seen criticisms of his botox treatments. I've seen concerns about his Special Interests funding. Those don't seem concocted to me. In fact, I worry about how they'll be used against him in the geneeral.

But in any case, what concocted issues are you talking about?

24. I want to see Clark and Edwards win one each today
As a Kerry supporter I think it'll be good for the campaign.

We certainly aren't at a point where we can be over-confident. Excited, yes, not certainly not cocky.

The next week or so will be interesting. Isn't Michigan Saturday? Maine caucuses on Sunday.

27. I've got your magic right here...
Edited on Tue Feb-03-04 06:08 PM by xultar


I see that Drudge Sucks, he's always sucked. I see that the National Review Sucks.

I see that Sludge, I mean Drudge has an agenda to screw the Democratic voters by promoting the RW agenda.

I see the media reporting the deaths of many campaigns, only coming back to eat their words as they have done before in the past 4 weeks.

Oh, and I see the polls closing way later than 3pm perhaps even as late as 9pm est for AZ.

I see exit polls as being inaccurate as usual. I see returns coming in and and people rejoycing.

I see ChimpyFace losing in 2004. I see people happy and dancing in the streets.

(edit, I also see that we'll find out that Ann Coulter is really Andrew Coulter from British Columbia.)



That's my magic. Wait till the returns come in kinda magic.

29. I'd like to ask Kerry & Edwards supporters to quit posting
Clark campaign is Dead threads and exit polls from RW sources without commentary.

That would be a big help.

Sludge, Faux, News Day, and National Review have never been sources for news that have anything but a RW agenda.
