Rant: "The public doesn't know John Kerry"

[Not Me]

If I hear that line one more time, I am going to puke.:puke:

Where the fuck have you been for the past 9 months??????
Open your eyes. Turn on the TV (other than American Idol). Read a freakin' newspaper!!

1. It's true

The sheeple are uninformed.

Clinton knew this. That's why he hit Arsenio and MTV.

I'm telling ya, Kerry's gotta do the same thing. Oprah, The View, Regis, Letterman, Leno, etc.

I'm sure not everyone watches CNN.

2. Partly true, partly a RW meme,

making out as if Kerry is "unknowable." :eyes:

The other RW meme is that Kerry doesn't give specifics. :eyes:

4. I agree somewhat

But not all people are as enlightened as us. (ahem)

He really needs to get out there and talk to the undecideds.

We already know what he's about.

3. Hmm... The people of Iowa know him

So do the people of New Hampshire and Massachusetts. It is republican spin so they can think their negative ads are working.

They keep "saying" Kerry won't get much of a bounce. Here is my theory. They are right in the fact in national polls he won't get much of a bounce. Where I do think he can get a 16 point bounce is the poll "Who would do a better job handling the war on terror?" I would look for a big bounce in that poll. The one poll that matters the most to smirky/snarly.
