I see they're so "sure" of a Kerry victory on the Kerry for President thread that some are advocating the banning of all Bush supporters between now and the election. At the same time, there were concerns expressed that the thread would become just another backpatting thread.... My comments: 1. Fear of discussion from those not enthralled with Kerry suggests a lack of confidence in their candidate. If that were not so, why restrict debate to Kerry supporters? Sounds as boring as Kerry himself. 2. It IS a "backpatting" thread. See #1 above, e.g. :-) The ongoing shrillness of Kerry supporters suggests to me an underlying paranoia and fear of failure for their candidate. It does not bespeak a lot of confidence. I don't know which way the election will go. I tend to think that there are a lot of people who are not particularly tuned in. If they don't vote the "party line", whatever that might be, the question is whether Kerry will inspire them. The answer to that question largely depends on how well their "phony meters" are working........ It's hard to say. They are a lot of people with less than sterling analytical skills.......
