NOYB........

I know for a fact your eyes *must* be brown.

Good guess. However, 73% of the World's population has brown eyes...so you
weren't really going out on a limb there.



You pick one poll, interpreted by some rightwing spin sheet, and cackle
with
glee.

The CNN/Gallup poll had Kerry up 2 points before the Convention...and down 4
points after the Convention. It doesn't take a "rightwing spin sheet" to
see that this is very bad news for Kerry. It also doesn't take any spin to
factually state that no Democratic candidate since 1972 has slipped in the
polls following their convention.





Here's a couple more for ya

Sunday August 01, 2004--The latest Rasmussen Reports Presidential
Tracking Poll shows Senator John Kerry with 49% of the vote and President
George W. Bush with 45%. The Tracking Poll is updated daily by noon
Eastern.

These results reflect a 4-point "bounce" for Kerry from the Democratic
national
convention.

You're just further supporting my statement that no good news for Kerry came
out in the recent polls. According to the Rasmussen Poll, a 4 point bounce
is the smallest post-Convention bounce a candidate has ever received in
their poll .


Last Monday morning, just before the convention began, Kerry and
Bush were tied at 46% each.

This is also just the second day in nearly 150 days of polling that either
candidate has moved above 48% in the daily Presidential Tracking Poll. The
only
other time this happened was shortly after Kerry announced North Carolina
Senator John Edwards as his running mate. Other than that, both Bush and
Kerry
have remained within 3 percentage points of 45% on every single day of
polling.

**************************************

I'm convinced you guys are going to take it again, because the GOP has
publicly announced that its convention is going to be dedicated to
"turning
John Kerry into an object of humor and derision".

There are far more stupid people around than smart ones, and most of those
dim
bulbs respond to and repeat hateful messages very easily.

But good job. You guys have the WH for four years, and you already know
the
only thing you'll have to talk about is what a jerk you believe your
opponent
to be.

When that tactic carries the day for you in November, it will be a sad
comment
on who you people are as well as what our nation is becoming.



Give me a break. Kerry and the Democrats spent more than a *year* bashing
Bush...dating back to the primaries campaign trail. After a year of
Bush-bashing, it became clear to Democratic pollsters that bashing a
"popular" incumbent was counter-productive. The only reason the Dems have
called for a "truce" is because they don't have the money tha Bush does to
spend in August on negative ads. Once the Republican Convention is over,
watch Kerry, et al, begin the negative campaining again. They'll claim that
they took the high road, but that Republican negative ads "forced" them to
start going negative again.
