Tonight, Bush will "hope to build on the momentum" of the last 3 nights

NEW YORK (Reuters) - President Bush (news - web sites), hoping to build on recent momentum in the White House race, delivers the biggest speech of his campaign on Thursday in the city where the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks transformed his presidency.

The groundwork was laid on Wednesday night with a pair of scathing attacks by Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) and convention keynote speaker Zell Miller, a Democratic senator from Georgia. The pair questioned Kerry's credentials to be commander in chief and his U.S. Senate record, with Cheney accusing Kerry of "a habit of indecision."

In a bid to blunt the assault, Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards (news - web sites) appeared on four television morning shows on Thursday. "Hate. Anger. If you listen to Senator Miller's speech and the vice president's speech there was an awful lot of focus and angry rhetoric about Senator Kerry," Edwards, a senator from North Carolina, said on CNN.

"It would be nice for them to have a little more anger about the 5 million people who've lost their health care while President Bush has been in office, 4 million who have fallen into poverty and the almost 2 million people who have lost their private sector jobs," he said.



"Sell your soul and sign an autograph Big bang baby, it's a crash, crash, crash..."
