1. It's still the economy, stupid

Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 08:14 AM by ayeshahaqqiqa

I've heard from people from all political walks of life, and they agree that the economy sucks and that Bush is to blame. At least one small businessman told my husband yesterday that she thought Bush should be castrated! So that tells you how high the feelings against Bush are running.

5. It Is Neve JUST The Economy, Stupid

and it bugs the stuffing out of me that so many fail to see this.

People care more about their families than their jobs.

That is why so many are drawn to vote against their best interests and pull the lever for Republicans.

They hear the empty rhetoric from the GOP about Family Values and Faith.

Clark had the Magic Bullet.

He pointed out that Democrats are the ones who REALLY work for and represent Family Values.

Democrats do the real work of helping families and we also embody the spirit of Unity and Common Purpose.

9. Real Family Values

should be stressed by the Dems, because we have them. Living wages, help when families need it, health care for all....these are more important than empty dogmatic lines that simply appeal to prejudice.

7. We better think before we jump

I think we are making a big mistake by calling Bush a lier on the WMD's. He may have jazzed up the intel but if we find evidence of WMD's either buried somewhere in the desert or carted out of the Iraq, the Democratic campain will be seriously damaged. We still have 8 months and you bet that he is using every resource to find any evidence of WMDs.

8. Bush is either a liar or a fool. My observations of him lead me to believe

that he is more a liar than a fool. And I'm positive there are no WMDs to be dug up in Iraq. If they were there, they would have been found by now.

10. he can when the unemployed drop off the roles because they are out of

benefits. This is artificially making the numbers look better, when they are actually worse. look for him to start lying about it soon.
