John Fucking McCain shut down any momentum Kerry could have gained

[Quixote1818]

We do need to fight Bush on this but Kerry can't do it alone!!!! The whole Democratic party needs to come forward and back up Kerry like shit head McCain did for Bush.

Several people are somewhat correct on this subject. Kerry does have the spot light and we do need to attack back but we need to do it in full FORCE and be smart about how we do it! Bring out dozens of Democrats, bring out high profile veterans. The war is OUR issue and we can absolutely hammer Bush on this and we have the perfect opportunity but we can't just let Kerry stand out their by himself. The Republican's NEVER fight their own fights, they bring in Swift boaters or John McCain to fight for them. Dem's need to learn to do the same thing.


Absolutely we need to fight back and fight back HARD! Lets keep the fight going but lets be smart about this!!! Flank Bush with Veterans and a crap load of Democrats standing behind Kerry and have them ask Bush to apologize for lying us into war and for all his fucking incompetence. Ask him to apologies for 3,000 American deaths on a lie!

1. Kerry answered the charges from the repukes just fine.

[babylonsister]

2. No he didn't. What are you listening to/reading? nt

[Quixote1818]

5. All the major news programs played McCain asking Kerry to apologize

Was I the only person to see this?

[Chipper Chat]

9. I thought McCain was ingenuious. It looked forced.

Rove has McCain by the balls. McCain has sold his soul to the devil. Tonight he will be in Georgie's bedroom down on his knees, and I dont mean prayin'.

[Quixote1818]

14. I am so sick of McCain! Yuck!

And to think I use to kind of like him.

[babylonsister]

19. Ingenious? I thought he looked like a rethug tool. nt

[Art_from_Ark]

25. I think the poster meant to say "disingenuous"

meaning "insincere" or "lacking frankness"

[babylonsister]

29. Ha.

I knew that, but didn't want to say it. Thanks.

[Chipper Chat]

31. Thanks for the clarification (or disclarification??)

I'll make it clearer: McCain sucks!

[babylonsister]

10. I saw it, but have you seen Kerry's response to it yet? If not, go here:

15. Resposne to McCain? nt

[babylonsister]

16. YES! It happened awhile ago. See my post above, I added link. nt

[Quixote1818]

18. Thanks. nt

13. McCain was reading from the WH script.

John, bad move IMO

[pstans]

3. You don't need to ask Feingold to fight back.

I bet you will be hearing from him tomorrow.

[Quixote1818]

7. I have a feeling a lot of Dem's will come forward tomorrow.

I think they are all sick and tied of this CRAP and they are putting their plan together as we speak!

[Jack_Dawson]

28. Yeah RIGHT

Dems are fucking spineless poll watchers right now. They're thinking: "You picked Halloween to grow a pair JK? Just STFU."

[ProSense]

4. Bullshit! n/t

[cali]

12. Wait a minute;

the OP makes a very good point- all the big guns in the party should be out there backing up Kerry. That's pretty important. We start getting limp noodles running away, or even worse jumping on the apology bandwagon, and we really could see some erosion in dem support.

[Quixote1818]

17. I think they just read the title. nt

[ProSense]

24. The frame is BS!

Why concede to McCain something that isn't true? Frame this as a plus for McCain is BS!

[malaise]

6. Wrong wrong!

Get out the popcorn and enjoy this as Kerry demands that Bush apologizes for a variety of lies.

[Quixote1818]

8. Good point! I hadent thought of it that way. nt

[BrotherBuzz]

11. McCain shut down any momentum?

McCain's opening salvo missed the mark, and he wishes he could go to his hidey-hole for the next few news cycles.

[Malikshah]

20. John "Please Sir, may I have another" McCain didn't do shit.

He's not on the nightly coverage-- it's all Bush, Snow, and the pundits salivating over a mirage of red political meat...

Too bad for them-- as they look posilutely relicudous... :)

We're fighting and will continue to do so.

[Quixote1818]

22. They had him on ABC, NBC and CBS tonight. That fuck head!

21. I agree -

Man - I think we have a legitimate shot at a senate pick-up in Arizona. Mccains buddy Kyl, I think we can take him out.

John M will be feeling a lot of heat should this occur.

Kerry is on to something - cause at the very least he can clog up the news cycle for days. They don't have days. And Kyl is dropping by the hour, appears to me.

23. Huh? Why? The Mid-Terms aren't about Kerry but getting our Dems in

place so that "later" Kerry and other candidates have the back up in House and Senate. :shrug:

[Lexingtonian]

26. nah.

All the talking heads and wonks are all aflutter about this, but average voters don't give a crap one way or the other. It agrees with what they already think and adds nothing, so it's a wash.

Iraq is a 35/56 issue for Bush- his 35% agree with him, and the 56% who don't like him agree with Kerry. The split doesn't do anything for Bush, and it gets Iraq back out ahead of the Republican Happy Talk and their pushing on gay marriage, Al Qaeda, and more tax cuts.

[ruggerson]

27. This story needs to go away

and the discussion needs to be about GEORGE BUSH and his abysmal failure as a President.

[Jack_Dawson]

30. Agreed - But it Won't

What else have the repukes to talk about? Certainly not the facts. So let's be victims. Thanks JK...you couldn't have waited til 11/8?
