4. I'm going to transcribe the follwing:
Susan Page, USA Today:

"Just after the midterm two years ago, I had lunch with one of President Bushs' most senior political advisor's who said that they thought the strongest competitor was going to be John Edwards because the only Democrat since John Kennedy who won the Presidency other that Southern Democrats, because they'd looked at all his legal cases and hadn't found a big opening in his personal injury lawsuits he'd persued and because it was going to be hard for George W Bush to argue his that he didn't have enough experience to be President given his limited resume before he became President. Now it retrospect, I'm not that that would have turned out to be true because i think it was so much a national security election. But that was what I was told then, Jack, what do you think?"

Jack Oliver, Bush-Cheney, Deptury Finance Chairman: "I will take my personal opinion, the one I was most focused on, in which I was very wrong was Gephardt. I thought he campaign was going to be fought in Middle America we knew that Kerry or whoever it was going to be was gonig to well on the coast, it was kinda of the Fahrenheit 9/11 vs Passion of Christ movie attendance model if you look at the map, we knew that was going to happen, the question was where were we in terms of the midwest states, IA, MN, MI, WI, MO, Key battleground state - OH and the midwest and I thought - this was me - thatme - personally - that Gephardt would have played well in the midwest, where you know the rural vote, the blue class, I mean the blue collar, I'm sorry, the blue collar, labor vote that he did so well, when you look at his congressional district - I'm from Missouri and Gephardt's congressional district is not liberal, democratic, it's more of an old-line Jefferson vote of Democratic labor, and he did very well in that despite having positions on abortion and other issues that were not reflected in the district, so I thought we would sell as a midwest, at a much higher level and I thought the union would come through for him."

Why did I highlight this portion of CSPAN rerun? Because I think the books in Missouri need to be looked at. I sat with a bunch of Union guys on 11/2. They voted overwhelmingly for Kerry. The women I know voted for Kerry. The Scientist I know voted for Kerry. All the people I know and love voted for Kerry. Who the F*** voted for ****? The exit polls had Kerry even winning MO....a state given up to the **** campaign in the last few months. Nonetheless, Kerry was winning in MO until around 9PM CST. Sorry, but I"m calling bullshit. At 6-7pm CST every poll was going to Kerry.

WE THE PEOPLE ARE COMING.
