59. Q, you are full of it, here's why
- The mainstream media is reporting the 'good news' about the economy.

So what, they'll be reporting the bad news after the holiday season, your point?

- Republicans, Centrists and more than a few Democrats now admit we 'had to' go into Iraq and we're there to stay for as long as it takes.

We do. What is your alternative? Of course, we need to get NATO troops into Iraq, and we need a much more effective President to craft an agreement witht the EU. No more no-bid contracts. But we can't just abandon Iraq.

- Bush's* lies about Iraq WMD have been all but forgotten and the betrayal of the covert CIA operative has become back page news. Bush* can stall release of the 9-11 document for years.

I could have sworn there is still an investigation being conducted by Justice on LeakGate, and the media will continue to mention no WMD (As they have been doing) and the 9-11 thing isn't just going to go away. It will all remain an issue through the election.

- RRWing Christians and certain generals think George* was chosen by God to save our country during a 'time of war'. Even some Democrats are saying he is the right leader at the right time.

One Democrat. Not some Democrats. Zell Miller is a loser. Perhaps you're counting Ed Koch? He doesn't count. What do 99% of the Democrats think Q?

- Dozens of other scandals and lies by the Bush* administration have been shoved under the table by the American media and the opposition party.

So basically you're saying that the 'opposition party', codespeak for the Democratic Party, are purposely being shoved under the table by the Democratic Leadership? Have you watched a Daschle or Pelosi press conference lately? Where do you get this garbage?

- We'll need much more than the individual game plans of the candidates. The Democratic Party needs a coherent, organized strategy to defeat Bush* in 2004.

We'll have it, but right now everyone is busy trying to kill each other over the primaries. By mid-March, all will be clear. The election is a year away!

- So where do we go from here? What issues can Democrats use to defeat the 'greatest wartime president in history'?

Jobs, Health Care, and Iraq.
