Bush campaign homepage all about Kerry - no pic of Bush or Cheney!
Right now I see three pictures of Kerry and a lot of verbiage about him:

The reptiles can only ATTACK, they are incapable of reasoning or human emotions. Maybe it's time to call in the Crocodile Hunter? :-)

3. The last time I looked they did have at least one pic of Bush.
That was a few weeks ago.

4. Yup.
Has there ever been a campaign website like Bush/Cheney 04? I doubt it.

8. Wow,
Is that a poorly designed, overly-busy page, or what? Geez... OVERLOAD!!

I like Kerry's page, lots of info, but easy to navigate and nice on the eyes.

9. Maybe it's outsourced.
I hear that you get really crummy work when you outsource.

10. I'm amazed that Smirk isn't touting all of his 'accomplishments'!!
Must just be an oversight.

:eyes:

I wonder why the delusional right doesn't get more embarrassed about the fact that they can only demonize their opponents and never crow about their 'successes'.

11. JohnKerry.com's Kerry's readership far eclipsed that of Bush.com

By Brian Faler
Wednesday, August 11, 2004; Page A07


Nielsen/NetRatings, an independent research firm, reported that traffic to the nominee's official Web site increased by 191 percent during the week of the convention, making it the fastest-growing major Web site in the country (for that week, anyway). In all, about 771,000 people visited the site from their homes. The firm distinguishes between Internet use at home and at work, and it did not release data on how the Massachusetts senator's site, or any other one, fared among those on the job. It estimated that visitors spend an average of eight minutes on the site.

Overall, the Kerry campaign's site was the 213th most popular in the country, just ahead of the online home of the business supply company Staples and right behind InPhonic.com, a site for a communications firm. JohnKerry.com was more popular than, for example, United Airlines' site, but it had fewer guests than either the Boston Globe's site or one called "Kara's Adult Playground."

His audience was paltry compared with some of the Web's most popular destinations. Yahoo.com had 45.8 million visitors for the week ended Aug. 1. MSN.com, the second most popular site, had 45.6 million. It is also likely that the nominee attracted only a tiny percentage of those online.

But Kerry's readership far eclipsed that of his Republican rivals. Nielsen/NetRatings estimated that the Republican National Committee's site had about 275,000 readers during the convention week, a 32 percent increase over the previous seven-day period. President Bush's campaign site, meanwhile, did not have enough visitors to register with the firm.
