"The reps have given dems good ammo to call them stone faced liars..." They've been doing that for a while. Admittedly, not quite in the quantities that they've done over the past few days. I'll grant that a full court press on the veracity issue might have been premature earlier. But Kerry has got to start soon. And he needs to be prepared, I'll guarantee you that the Bush campaign has a lot more up their sleeves than just their arms. Smirk's basic approach is that he can escalate things further and faster than his opponent can or will. Expect whisper campaigns, more of those Internet e-mails with the little tag "how many people can you send the TRUTH to?", 527s springing up and launching kamakazi attacks, phone calls purporting to be polls asking leading questions ("and if you were informed that Kerry was funding Chechen terrorists targeting Russian schools, how would you vote?"), photoshopped pictures of Kerry with farm animals, etc... I wonder if they will have a debate this year? If the Democrats start to fight back, it will quickly go thermo-nuclear. It might not be possible to get the two in the same room by then.
