I wonder how well this effort went for Kerry (see 6/4 AP story below)? And now the Swiftvets have brought the true Kerry story to Minnesota in the final hours with mass mailings and a 5 million dollar add buy.

WAY TO GO Swiftvets!

Kerry mobilizes army of voters
6/4/2004 8:54 AM
By: Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS -- Democrat John Kerry is about to try to gather an army.

On Friday, Kerry will roll out his campaign for the traditionally conservative-leaning veterans' vote. Volunteer veterans coordinators in all 50 states will try to recruit current and former soldiers to his campaign. The goal is to sign up 1 million veterans to help get out the vote for Kerry.

John Hurley, the national director of Veterans for Kerry, said there are roughly 26 million veterans in the United States. Currently, more than half say they support President Bush. But Hurley said veterans will be motivated because of Kerry's war experience and their anger at diminished services from the Veterans Administration and the handling of Iraq.

Bush's re-election team says Kerry's Vietnam War experience won't be enough to win over veterans' votes.

That's evil... but I do wonder where Kerry's army has materialized?

He's got a bunch of the old VVAW crowd with him (when they're not busy slandering and demoralizing this NEW generation of soldiers) and a few other people who seem to be very loyal to him - but, I'm not hearing about mobilizing vast veterans' marches in his honor, are you? Wink
