Palpable Sense of Fear
This is second-hand information, but I thought you'd enjoy it. My partner was listening to the news this morning and they did an interview with a woman who has been covering the Bush campaign, I think for ABC. They asked her what the mood was on the campaign, and her response was that there was a palpable sense of fear, that there were more hugs between campaign members recently, and that instead of George and Laura hitting the final campaign stops together, they were being sent seperately in order to cover more area.

1. LOL! Let THEM feel fear for a change


They've been inflicting it on US for four years.

Welcome to DU DallasTim.

Can you find out what station that was on and who the reporter was?

6. Additional Information
The station was WBAP 820 AM, a conservative news talk station here in Dallas. My partner frequently listens to their stations to hear what they are feeding their followers. In that way, he has already figured out responses to their latest mental programming.
It was on the Morning News Show. Each morning at 6:45 they talk to the Republican correspondent, but my partner can't remember her name.

11. Howard Fineman was just saying that W and Laura would be together
Fineman who blows in the wind from day to day, was talking about how the Bushies made a better campaign image in last couple of days to appeal to families by being seen together whereas Kerry hasn't been seen with Teresa. So I can't wait to see both candidates campaign stops for the next few days and see if W and Laura have split up. Kerry is going to have some tremendous cheering crowds and lots of positive appearances I'll bet.

14. I love the smell of fear in the mornin!
they are in full panic mode. I got a really rabid anti Kerry response this past weekend from a few repugs. They can't fathom a * loss. "You really think Kerry is going to win? I said 100% sure if all the people are allowed to vote it will be a Kerry landslide. 52% to 47% is my prediction on the popular vote.
