Kerry's "message". . .

[eileen from OH]

there's been a lot of hand-wringing because Kerry hasn't had a sound byte type summarize-him-in-a-phrase. The thing he said the other night, pledging that he would be on top of things, really struck a chord with me (and the audience.)

I like "Aware And Accountable." (I was gonna throw in "Awake" too but it may be a tad too snarky. hahahahaha.)

1. Is Kerry laying kinda low (despite the big ad buy this past week)...

Because he knows they're going to self-destruct, or is he making a bad move by not being more aggressive? I'm not really sure.

2. KERRY

doesn't need to do much right now. Bush is so busy digging his hole deeper that Kerry is just waiting till the sides crumble down on him(bush).

3. There is "laying low" and there is being absent

So far, Bush's poll numbers have taken a hit, but that hit has NOT improved Kerry's standing.

Kerry needs to slam him, and slam him hard, on being accountable. Americans really dislike someone who lets his underlings take the heat while they profess ignorance.

5. The Winning Kerry Message: He doesn't have a plan. I DO!

I told him so last week. I'm confident he'll use it eventually.

I have this feeling he's got a lot of stuff in the goody box ready to trot out when football season begins. (Hope to God I'm right!)
