Kerry's Got nuthin'

What else is there to say about Kerry? He touted his positive, issues-based campaign and instead is about to launch an ad blitz basically saying that Bush is a s/thead and is using the same campaign tactics against a decorated military vet that Bush used in 2000 against John McCain. What a crock! Kerry must think that Bush is coordinating as tightly with the $500K Swifties (that's what they've taken in) as Kerry is with MoveOn.org, America Coming Together and the Media Fund (total take > $60 MILLION). For those of you counting along at home, this means the Kerry-favoring 527 groups have received more than 120 TIMES the amount of money the Swifties have received.

Moreover, the Swifties are NOT coordinating with Bush (John O'Neill, the Swifties' head man was an EDWARDS supporter), but Kerry wants to paint his little picture despite a complete absence of any evidence of coordination. More importantly, Kerry is desperate to CONNECT HIMSELF TO McCAIN in some fashion, in the belief that McCain is the most popular Republican in the country (which is a fantasy that has reached mythological proportions because the media loves McCain). Simply stated, this is pretty pathetic.

If Kerry had ACTUAL issues that favored him, and ACTUAL policy positions (and an ACTUAL record of achievement as a Senator), he would tout that instead of drinking his party's own Bush-hatred Kool-Aid. But he is nothing but a shell politician created from four months of service in Vietnam and an experience seared-seared in him that turned out to be false. He deserves to lose and the Bushies need to POUND Kerry on the issues and Kerry's awful record to beat him.
