I think its sad that we have come to this in politics. I watched a crowd of people waiting to hear Kerry speak and there was one women that went way over the top in her adoration of him. She was jumping up and down and looked like she was on some sort of happy pill. I think that is what happens to some people they get so intense about there candidate they forget to listen to the true facts or just wont. I dont think you will ever change there minds. If I am watching TV and someone starts spewing what I know to be lie's I just push the mute button and watch the facial expressions and that tells you alot.


Cool Mybe she had just gotten a nice big check from the Kerry Kampf Cool
Ya know People still get paid to sob at funerals. No difference here Laughing

I saw that woman too - should looked ridiculous. I also saw a clip of Bush getting the same response from wives of soldiers in Iraq - and they were thanking him - you could read their lips - and he was hugging them all as he went down the line it was very moving.

The last 2 posts are kind of frightening, Bush's much less so. I repect Pres Bush but I don't worship him.
I think people are so scared b/c of the world situation that they are hoping for a savior. and thanks to cable news, we have the world situation in our face 24/7. I just watch less news. I'm very serious, for my mental health, i watch less news. I check in here, and with drudge, and Hanity, and Rush. I am trying to stay sane .
i've been raised in a religous enviroment all my life. Most of them believe we are in the last days and this is the beginning of the great tribulation. My religion taught mankind was going to destroy himself and God will have to step in to save us all. I have regected those beliefs, but the world situation is scary and people are afraid.

All these talking heads on tv are just playing mind games. I don't even watch Fox anymore. Don't let them play with you. Get out and vote early. Kerry is going down. Very Happy

Just look at all the red in the spread column. I can feel momentun and I bet Karl Rove still has a few surprises.

I believe in my heart GWB will win. What these elections do to us is not healthy when your following and trying to do what's right. I think our young people are really paying attention. A girl I work with, her twin grandsons have been asking alot of questions. Their only 17 and can't vote, but their going door to door for Bush and handing out bumper stickers for Bush. These boys would be draftable. They have payed close attention. I think everyone is feeling anxiety.

Regarless of who wins, I think we have seen alot of things that need to be changed in this country. If Bush wins it will be easier to start doing the job of cleaning up what's wrong. Newpapers have to change and deliver to us both sides of issues again. They have no right to endorse a candidate, their job is to report unbiased news. The same goes for the networks. The ones who have failed us need to be replaced. The Hollywood crowd, the radicals we need to boycot. If we hit them in the pocket they will hear a message loud and strong. We need to take our nation back and we need to work for the next 4 years to expose the Democratic Party or Clinton Party for what it is.

This country is not devided, John Kerry only says we are. The democrats have used that. Politics is not our everyday life, we have to go to work and take care of our families. We don't live and breathe hatred for our neighbor.

My dog is howling to John Denver now so I'll hush, lol. But that's my take on things to come.
