Key Dem Leaders: Kerry is back on track

"Despite turmoil in the John Kerry campaign, key Democrats believe Kerry is back on-message and poised to overtake President Bush by Election Day. Following two weeks of Kerry campaign reorganization, optimism flourishes among party insiders. Democrats favor this increasingly combative Kerry."

snip-

Insiders say that in the past week, Kerry has been his best: clear spoken and fervent in driving home a difference between he and the incumbent.

It's where former Democratic presidential candidate and Vermont Gov. Howard Dean wanted Kerry the past year. “He’s really needs to take it to the president,” the onetime Democratic front-runner said. Kerry overtook Dean in January; Dean believes Kerry will do the same with the president.

snip-

And he added, “Clearly the last week has been lots, lots better.”

Dean’s former campaign manager, Joe Trippi, has long called on Kerry to take President Bush on directly. He’s contented that “clearly they’ve been much more aggressive” recently.

The momentum is changing. This is going to be a very interesting and inspiring next 6 weeks.

1. Did 'The Big Dog' make some phone-calls
and told these asswipes that they either get on the bus or take a hike. Kerry can't win if his own team is sniping at him. These are the kind of articles I like to see.

4. I have to agree, this is the John Kerry we have been waiting for!
He is on the offensive, pointing out failure after failure of *, it's about time and yes...

Clinton's 90 minute phone call with Kerry right before surgery did wonders for John Kerry.

Its the "wake up" call he needed!
