Kerry is visionary, wise, honest, smart, courageous and with all the right plans for the issues. Much more so than Bush who is narrow-minded, selfish and dishonest.

Bush beat JK last year by a slim margin, and only did so by cheating, lying, using a huge dishonest smear campaign he lied about having nothing to do with, all those dishonest negative TV ads saying JK was "weak on defense", Zell Miller's bald-faced lies (he and JK had the exact same defense voting record), the 9-11 hangover, the phony terrorist alerts (every time JK went ahead, Bush would use a phony terrorist alert, which is an impeachable offense) and even a last minute video from Bin Lauden which must have been created by Bush's dirty tricks division because we haven't heard from OBL since.

Finally, Bush had four years to prep. I worked with Jk, so I know, though we had the money flowing in, we didn't have time to really prepare a large cohesive team in every precinct. It took time to make peace with the Deaniacs and unite with the Edwardians. Remember, JK foght his way back from 10% support to win. That was hard, exhausting work. JK himself was exhausted. Hardly slept in 6 months abd even had cancer surgery in there.

The cheating issue is alive and well. The Diebold and Ohio scandals are only partially investigated. All the exit polls showed JK had won. This needs to be fully investigated. And we may well find that Diebold Bushies stole the election with a single mouse click. Also, smearvet type campaigns ought to be made illegal. Truth in advertising neded. Just outrageous.

The Diebold scandal includes a whistleblower from within the company who claims elections may have been fixed in 2004, including Ohio which gave Bush a narrow come-from-behind victory over Kerry. At 5 pm exit polls showed Kerry had won the election. A few hours later Bush had magically pulled ahead, just like he did in 2000 when the networks called it for Gore, and were probably right.

You have a nerve calling Kerry a "loser" when Bush could only win by gross cheating, outrageous lies, a dastardly smear campaign and phony terrorist alerts every time Kerry had a good day. You should be ashamed for supporting corrupt politicians and smearing honest ones. Kerry ran a 100% honest campaign.
