THE POODLE'S PLAN TO STEAL THE ELECTION The Democrats and the Kerry campaign believe that Al Gore made a mistake four years ago in not immediately claiming victory in the presidential election (despite the fact that he hadn't yet won it.) The Poodle has decided that no matter what the election result is, they're going to claim victory, and even announce a national security team. In other words, the Democrats are going to try and steal the election. Again. The Poodle's campaign also says it will have six 'SWAT teams' of lawyers ready to go to any state to contest the outcome. They don't intend to respect any result. By what voting margin will they concede defeat? 5 points? 10 points? Are they going to follow their playbook they gave to the race warlords and claim voter intimidation? Will they invoke the 2000 Bush v. Gore decision about Equal Protection under the law? If the election is decided and over with on November 2nd, it will be a miracle.

Longwinded Kerry Prompts Audience Walkout John Kerry has tightened up his rhetoric on the campaign trail, but he's still sometimes too longwinded on the stump - even for some of his biggest fans. Tuesday night, for instance, when he arrived in Waterloo, Iowa - Kerry kicked off a rally at the airport with a bang. But as he continued to drone on his audience grew so bored one of them actually almost passed out. After launching into an attack on Bush, saying it was time to give him his "two-weeks-notice," Kerry almost immediately began to lose focus. CBS News.com describes what happened next: "Shortly thereafter, Kerry wound up drifting, even after promising 16 minutes into the event that he would wrap up his remarks as an audience member became woozy. "While the man was being tended to, Kerry told the crowd he was going to 'wind up ... because I don’t want to keep everybody late.' "It eventually took him over six minutes of winding to finally 'wind up,' though several audience members wound up walking out, choosing not to wait for the end."
