Who Can Beat Him ?

perpetual war for re-election? How stupid do you think the American people are? Do you think we're all block headed flag waving hypocrites?

take a step back, take a deep breath. There are no patriots left. Try to politicize 9/11 with a fear campaign and it will lead Bush right off a cliff.

The only thing we have to fear is.....fear itself.

Well, what I meant with the "no patriots left" quip was that the media will tear apart anybody trying to be overly patriotic. Look at Bush with the whole banner thing on the aircraft carrier, they'll try to tear apart clark too.

Some of the South is a write off for the dems.....just like some of the north is a complete long shot for the GOP. Do you see repubs taking NJ, Mass, NY, or Conn??? Do you see Dems taking Alabama & Mississippi?

We need to target on states like Louisiana, Missouri, Tennessee, and Arkansas. Sort of quasi-southern states that Gore was at least competitive in in 2000. Anybody suspected of being a stuffy liberal would get butchered there. But some combo of Clark/Gephardt/Edwards (doesn't really matter who's at the top of the ticket) can carry at least 1 of those states, and that might be enough for Dems.

Well, right now they may seem anti american to you. They're fighting tooth and nail against each other, and the anti Bush rhetoric is pretty severe.

But it will die down once the field narrows, we're going to hear more ideas and see more flag waving.

The fact that they don't think the US is unique as a nation....I just don't pick up on it. What they're stressing right now is working with the international community, easing the burden. But then again I don't really pay much attention to dean either.
