Fear. Uncertainty. Doubt.
With some of the freedom-fighters I am reading from on this board, Kerry isn't our problem.

It's the total lack of faith you display in your candidate. You don't see the right wingers behaving that way about Bush.

Buck up and put some damn starch in your spine.

1. We're Dooooooooooooooooomed!
Intentionally or not... the constant negativity is disruptive.

And it is also NOT HELPFUL.

2. I gotta agree
Really, the same people who are fearing about Kerry are the same people who said Kerry wouldnt make it past New Hampshire, that Kerry would pick Gephardt, that his convention speech would be dull, they were wrong then and they are wrong now. I am not saying the campaign has been ran perfectly but it has been very solid and I don't forget that Kerry does his best in the last two months of a campaign not in where we are now. If you want Kerry to go after the Bush's on a certain issue write his campaign, volunteer, etc write the papers etc, Kerry and Edwards cant do it by themselves, its a team effort.

3. I agree
We just had a beautiful display of solidarity in NYC with the protest march and one day later people are feeling down.

For every protestor who was there, there were probably 10 or more people who wish they were there.

Bush is digging his grave right now by saying the war on terror is unwinnable. That's all he has folks and he put his foot in his mouth.

Smile! :-)

4. NO.
I am terrified about the paperless voting machines and THAT IS ALL. If you can reassure me about this, thanks in advance. But other than that I have total faith in Kerry/Edwards. I just don't believe we can win if 1/3 of the American vote is fixed.

5. Then throw in the towel!
If one third of the vote is fixed, we already lost. Choose another battle.

If you are convinced of that, it's fine. But don't turn around and blame Kerry if we lose because of adulterated machines.

8. I'm not blaming him. I doubt he could do anything to stop all this.
I just need to stop posting because my angst level about these bbvs has reached the point that I'm now counter productive here. I agree we have to keep up morale and I just am not able to do that now.

9. Saw your thread in AtA. I've noticed the poop, too.
I've also noticed an strange use of pronouns and nouns used together.

"Libs," "liberals," "them," and "they" often used in the same sentence.

Things that make you go hmmmmmmm...
