Contact the Kerry Campaign directly and urge them to not run that stupid NYT motivated ad!

Of course be cordial as possible for maximum impact...you may even mention that you speak for undecided voters that running such an ad when the facts are still coming forth would be unwise!!

I just called their national campaign and their operator said, 'Yes, we've already released the ad' but he didn't know where the link was to the ad on their own website and suggested I Google or Yahoo to find out. He didn't know even what the ad said...nor did they know if the ad was consistent with the NYTimes article or what was in it...when I told him I'd seen some reference to ad on Drudge he suggested I go there and then got snippy, "You're the one that reads that stuff!" I said to him, "I saw a reference to this ad on Drudge and I decided to call you and ask you about it. Is it OK that I called you?" He then said, "Oh, yeah, yeah, it's OK."

Call them - blast them - they don't know what's going on!

A noble thought SIS, but I'd probably have more luck putting a snake inside my shirt and trusting it not to bite me. Evil or Very Mad

Why would I want to try to stop the Kerry Campaign from self destructing?

Nah. They think they've got us surrounded, SIS. Leave them to their delusions. This ad campaign will suffer the same ignonimous defeat as the ignorant Fortunate Son campaign ad/idea.

I know it the election appears close and we are getting down to the wire, but steady as we go, everyone. Very Happy

Keep it real, keep it honest, and make 'em pay.

i'm hoping all but the most rabid looney left will open their eyes and a bit and see :
this is preelection and they would run a story on their mother Shocked

if they thought it would get kerry elected. the story is being defused and i guess if the bush people are really worried, they fire one back at them.

How about this approach -- something the Kerry campaign can't deal with -- THE TRUTH.

Call up, tell them you are voting against Kerry and THANK THEM FOR RUNNING THE AD.

That should put their heads spinning.

I agree with the Kerry Spot: http://www.nationalreview.com/kerry/kerryspot.asp

PC · Posted: Wed Oct 27, 2004 7:28 am Post subject: Ad

Jim Geraghty at the Kerry Spot says that his comments on an ad using
these statements got more hate mail from the lefties than ANYTHING he has ever written.

The truth hurts.

“Kerry is playing Monday Morning Quarterback with the 101st Airborne’s performance in Iraq. In 1971, John Kerry smeared our troops as rapists and butchers then... He’s smearing them as incompetent now. This Nov. 2, show John Kerry what you think of his attacks on our troops."

The more I think about this, the more that ad has to happen. It also completely kicks the NYT, CBS, and the rest right where it hurts.

Bush has to do something strong. He's on the defensive now and the Clintonistas running Kerry are going to be feeding daily off MSM anti Bush stories.

Kerry is controlling the message now and that's not good coming down the stretch.

Think about the momentum we've lost:

No Swiftboat focus, No POW focus, No Flip Flop stories, No Paris talks, No discharge stories

According to Dick Morris a few days ago, Bush was supposed to gain major momentum because he was able to finally frame Kerry as a liberal. But the explosives story is winning out.

I hope Karl Rove earns his reputation during these next 7 days.
