Does the Democratic party have an Attack Dog the likes of Rove?
If their lies stick , why isn't the Kerry Camp bringing Bush down faster with
the truth? If Character assasination is what this Election is about Bush should
be falling like a house of cards.

1. Carville and Begala
And they may eventually join the Kerry payroll, too. There was a story implying that in the Wall Street Journal today.

7. I love watching Carville beat up Tucker Carlson.
I'm looking for a Tenacious , Heartless Democrat that hasn't switched to the GOP.

Don't get me wrong Carville is good. But he has no horns or a tail.

2. No, and sometimes you don't want one
Clinton, of course, had Carville. But when he was getting slandered by the Reich, he took it in stride and won two elections and beat an attempted impeachment.

4. We just need to get the vote out.....
Step away from the keyboard....go down to the local Board of Elections....pick-up registration forms and hit the streets.....There is a vast resource of hungry Americans who need a little guidance at this voting thing. We here know whats going on....Lets give out a little education, support and get folks to the polls.


Its real simple, rather neighborly and indeed essential to winning this election. It all boils down to votes. Lets not give a fuck who raged on with spewed lies.....most folks don't get it....haven't even been following the campaigns.

They do need us to show them how it is done....Be a voting mentor!

Go On Now....Get Off Your Buttocks.....Lets win this thing.

5. On the right, Lies = Truth.
Very hard to fight that. Hard to fight a press corpse that will not counter the lies. Kinda hard to fight the talk shows that will not allow or will not re-book lefty guests that are energetic and effective in pointing out the lies and how the hosts have participated in them. We could have the best communicator on the planet with a complete history of all time in his/her head, and that person would be avoided.

The method of the left is not seen as the most profitable way to those in the media. Character assasination is only effective when you have an agent to carry the poisoned letter. The corporate media is not in a mood to be the messenger of the left.

Oh, Rove is a criminal. The left does NOT need a Rove. We could use a new Franklin, though.

6. There are lines I won't cross.
These lines aren't visible to a sociopath. The violence and black or white ideology of the republicans would be more attractive to a sociopath.
