FOX NEWS screws Kerry!!!
They said he wasn't for gay marriage on the ticker and were verbally saying he was. I had to go to his web page to find out he was pro-gay civil unions. Ugh.

Or...

I was really tired

3. Big whoop

Like they were not going to attakc any other DEmocratic candidate on this issue. Its like I said, they are frigtened of Kerry because there are no inconsistancies in his political career they can go after, so they are simply going to have to base their attack on stock standard differnces between the Democratic PArty' ideology and their own. They are going to also go after th pro choice ideology o the Democratic party, but everyone else they would be able to attack on the same issues.
They are going to try to avoid the war with Kerry, because as everyone is so fond of attacking him on, He signed both the Patriot Act, and the Iraq Resolution ,so here it will be an issue of the way the Patriot Act has been absed by Ashcroft(and the courts have recently ruled against Ashcrofts interpretations in a number of areas), aswell as Kerry's support for getting rid of Saddam, but by letting the international community decide how to do it, not the U.S. alone. On the most important issues, Kerry's armor is the strongest. So the Bush adminstration will be reduced to attacking stock standard democratic party issues. on gay rights and abortion, and Kerry will be able to get around those rather handily, as he will be able to use tthe terrible ecomomy against Bush stating that it has forced people to have to have unneccessary abortions and yada yada.

Bush and Rove are facing their worse nightmares,as Kerry has faced Republicans and Republican campaign planners every bit as good as Rove, and stood against candidates with I.Q.' s much higher than Bush's IQ of 90.(factual) It will be Bush facing Kerry in any debates, not Rove. If Bush avoids them, it will be more ammo against him.

It amazes me the magic powers that people who suport other candidates give to Rove. The fact that it was so easy to determine that it was stolen indicates that Rove is fairly inept.

This is not the first election that has been stolen, only the first one it was possible to tell was stolen so quickly. And it hasnt always been the Republicans stuffing the ballot boxes. Rove is absolutely nothing special and Kerry has a number of people on his team who were once insiders in the Bush White House. Bush has no -one who was once a Kerry staffer.

5. Rove's porported "genius" is a myth
Give me a compliant media, my own television network, my own newspapers, my own magazines, my own think tanks, and a thousand little Rush Limpdick wannabe radio talk hosts all over the USA reading from my prayer book - and I think I could run a few winning campaigns.

7. FOX NEWS screws Kerry
and you expect otherwise? This is just the beginning. Wait 'til they start on his Senate record of nearly 20 years, 1985-2004. They have so much ammunition, so much money, and no scruples. It doesn't help that Kerry is not the best candidate, either. We'll see how much his alleged electability stands up to the scrutiny of his record by all the media.

8. Kerry's record is what they fear.
Here's a quick recap:

Military record: Vietnam War hero.

Civilian record: Helped lead anti-war effort.

Massachusetts State Prosecutor: Helped jail Mafia kingpin.

US Senator: Voted against making the turd Rehnquist chief justice. Busted BCCI rogue banking empire. Busted Ollie North-Iran-contra-White House drug running. Voted as a Liberal Democrat 95-percent of the time, meaning the record shows he's pro-public education, pro-small business, pro-environment, pro-organized labor, pro-choice, etc.

Other than that, he's still the best candidate in the running.
