What in the heck are you talking about? Your candidate has explicitly embraced the ultimate GOP talking point -- that invading Iraq was the right thing to do, regardless of WMDs. Why would you blame people for being loose about this horse-face? He's a creep, and always has been. He stands for nothing but his own ambition, and even that apparently doesn't much excite him. People know this, and it has nothing to do with "the left."

The left is the 55 percent of Kerry voters, plus untold millions more who aren't willing to fight down their own vomit. The former would vote for any cadaver the DP threw up, and the latter are people the DP refuses to organize and mobilize by talking about social polarization.

The people now debating their vote for Kerry would be irrelevant, if the Dems did what Kevin Phillips has recommended since 1984.

You should not go a round judging the left from within your own DP captivity.
