>>Kerry is no friend of Clinton's or Gore's

So dyed in the wool Dem Kerry doesn't like Bush. LOL. The partisan Kerry recently resigned from the organization he helped lead when it reported that Bush's proposals were better for the economy. Yes, Kerry is just that partisan.

As for competence, AlGore can't even manage an email account!

A genuine futurist knows AlGore is poison to high tech:

I am still waiting on an answer to your accusation.

Since you "clearly" know these, why do you not answer??

I think one of the reasons why the polls are so close is that many Americans aren't enthusiastic about Al Gore as the next president. However, once in the ballot booth, casting a vote for George W. Bush will become extremely difficult for many Americans.

Why?

1) Bush really isn't the leader his dad was, nor does Bush have the experience his dad did. Gore has a resume at least on a par level as former President Bush.

As obvious from the debates, the younger Bush's competence is a fair game issue. Bush's description of military missions in response to a question, "How will your tax proposals affect me as a middle-class, 34-year-old single person with no dependents" was and is pitiful. George W. Bush's candidacy nothing but at the shoestrings of powerful money interests who'd like to see him elected. He is not, as is Gore, a well-balanced candidate for the presidency.

2) The nitty-gritty is the shape of the economy. If Bush think voters are going to vote their pockets, he's right. However, I don't think they'll be fooled by his promised tax cuts with a potential loss of valuable services, measured against an already strong economy and the successes of the current administration.

Yes, I think when it actually comes down to pulling the lever that Bush will be viewed as shallow and Gore as experienced. Americans will pick the more experienced leader who has a proven record. It just makes sense!

LOL. What would you expect a partisan Democrat to say about Bush? Don't try to sell me on a pretense that Kerry's not loyal to his party. Moreover, if what these Democrats are saying about Bush is true, given his repeatedly crushing Gore in the debates, what does that say about Gore?

Partisan Democrats, in desperation, are already trying to re-write history.

I wonder if the senators were reading from the same notesheet. Hell, they may have been sitting side by side sharing the same sheet.knc
