1. Who is this assclown?
Get this:

Bruce says, "I view myself as a conservative who welcomes opposing viewpoints. However, over the past decade, there has been a change in the rhetoric employed by the left, and that has made a genuine exchange of perspectives and ideas across political lines much more difficult. It’s not easy to talk with someone who instinctively resorts to personal attacks or name calling instead of advancing a political philosophy. While I sometimes think that the real problem is the left’s lack of a cohesive political philosophy to advance, I’m committed to that exchange wherever I can find it."

What a stinking heap of bullshit!

Guess he doesn't listen to much conservative radio.

4. you know the irony is that
its them who are the partisan pigs, Grover Norquist admitted according to Clinton in his RS interview that he wanted to turn every state capitol in America in to what DC became after the GOP "revolution" of '94. He's talking about what the right does. I think these republican should see real democratic partisanship, which means Kerry should shove liberal legislation down their throats.

2. Where's Dean on the poll? Weird ommission.
Dean will help most and Clinton only can hurt becuase the pukes will make hay out of anything he says and the media will follow right behind.

5. Kerry will either hurt himself or help himself depending on if he
speaks as a Democrat or as Bush* lite. I'm not looking forward to it.

6. Clinton will inspire the party,
but hurt Kerry by reminding what we are having to settle for.

Clinton = Ali Kerry = Larry Holmes
Clinton = Rodger Staubach Kerry = Danny White
Clinton = Sugar Ray Leonard Kerry = Terry Norris

Larry Holmes, Danny White and Terry Norris were all capable and the best at the time, but they paled in comparison with who they followed.
Clinton will only remind us of that.

13. Kerry is most likely to do the most damage to himself
Hear me out. I've been a supporter of Kerry's for years. I think he will make a fine president. I think his choice of Edwards is inspired. I think he will bring sanity back to our national policy. I plan on voting at least three times for him.

Having said that, listening to him speak makes me want to commit a violent act upon myself.
