I have a friend who has never in her life seen a Presidential Debate
Until last weeks. She is married to a Republican and has not paid any attention to Politics before this year. She is now talking about getting a copy of F 9-11 and watching it and having her husband watch it with her. She told me she will do everything in her power to get Bush* out. She said she was going to vote against Bush* but was still not convinced Kerry was much better. I hear that a lot and all I can tell them is to give him a try. I say the more you find out about Kerry the more you will like him. He still is having a hard time connecting and I'm not really sure why. I was a Kerry fan from the beginning. Anyway some more positive news. I always hate to get too optimistic because this has been a hell of a roller-coaster ride but I think Bush* is toast. I really do. :-)

1. People who watch F911 after seeing the debate will connect the dots..
more easily. The jerk portrayed in F911 were not some obscure out of context clips. They were the real bush that people got a chance to finally see for themselves last week.

3. I was told this weekend of a 76 yr.old voting for the first time
She is voting for Kerry-more like against Bush.

The reason Kerry hasn't been able to "connect" is that the media won't report on him. Think about the time over the last 3 months spent on SwiftBoaters and Rather, hell even before that they didn't cover him.

6. Yes, it's a POWERFUL movie and it'd make a great tool for...
...switching someone from voting AGAINST Bush* to voting FOR JK.
