1. Most people want to vote FOR someone, not against someone.
People get turned off to totally negative campaigns. Instead, mention the other fella's failings, and show where you'd do better. People want to know HOW you're going to fix things; they already know stuff's broken.
7. I agree, but it seems to be more about them than us.
There's more than enough things to speak about other than Bush's failings. However, I'm concerned that the media is really pushing the issue of "Bush bashing" as if democrats have an obligation to only say nice things about him.
Maybe because he's so obviously not up to the job.
Maybe they think it's unfair to attack or even confront someone who is obviuosly suffering from some sort of learning disability, even though nobody ever comes out and says it. He can never deal with a confrontation about his own failed policies, it's like he never really understood them in the first place (which I personally believe is the case). Sad.
5. the Dems are taking a page outta the Repugs book...
Kerry/Edwards: See how nice we're playing...
The the 527's can come in and excoriate Shrubya's ass as he so well deserves. Their hands are clean and still the message gets out. Like I've been saying... bout time Dems got some balls...
Right now, the repugs are looking like the pathetic attack slimeballs that they are with their ridiculous "truth" squad.
Every one of the speeches at the convention has been extremely critical of the policies of this administration. . .but is all about the Issues and The Policies, and that is the way it outta be right now.
