tonto, the knock out punch will be when you put Kerry next to Bush in a Presidential debate.

If you remember the Democratic promaries, it was Dean on the swing. It was Dean making all the noise on the stump, it was Dean whom the press thought would "run away" with the nomination, it was dean who was attacking Bush and the press thought he was very effective in doing that.

And then came the debate, notably the one in Boston and the one in Michigan. Kerry put up a very strong showing as a debator. He challenged DEan to answer some questions and he persisted that Dean not dance around but answer the question. His persistence knocked the sails off Dean.

The American people will get to see who is flexible, who is not dogmatic not as Bush says flip-flop. The American people will get to see that who views this world as rainbow and not just as black or white. The public will get to see the originality of Kerry versus the Cheneyism of Bush's thinking etc. etc.

And besides, the nation knows well that our troops are taking the bullets and hence they are quiet and united and willing to give Bush these few extra months to achieve something tangible in Iraq. If he fails to do so by convention time, you will see calls to pul US out and get the UN military in will increase. And that will be accelerated by Kerry and the Dems making a very strong case for that approach.

On the economy, we will have to wait and see what inpact the recent spurt in Iraq violence and oil prices will have over the next quarter. These are not ominous signs for the economy as evidenced by the direction of the stock market in the past 10 trading days. Let us not forget that traditionally we see a pop in the economy in the months of January and February.
