1. Unsustainable unreality

Who cares what they think? When later reports show them appalled, disheartened, wringing their hands, we'll be too busy to worry about their points of view or woes.

Dogged determination and hard work and leave them to their temporary delusions.

2. Yes, I was looking a free republic recently

They all are convinced Bush will win easily. One post headline read, "It's over" The more they say this and believe it, the less likely some of them will vote. "Hey, it's in the bag, why bother?"

3. Right. And less likely they will register voters, or drive them to polls

Getting out the vote will be very important. The Republicans were surprised in 2000 at the Democrat get out the vote effort and have cranked up a massive one this time that needs to be matched and exceeded.

5. Yea I hope they get more overconfident and relax

By the same token, if Kerry is slightly down in the polls it will motivate his supporters to get out and vote and do other election day activism.

4. Well, Kerry is at his best when

people think he's a goner, so hopefully, we'll see that fighting Kerry we always hear about and actually saw during the primaries.
