Scripted

I swear, if Kerry wins this election with what I've considered to be an amateur campaign, then you can fool most of the Americans most of the time. Kerry's condemnation of the Moveon.org ad is looks very scripted. MoveOn has been joined at the hip with the Democratic party. Their latest ad looks like nothing more than an a big fat softball pitch for Kerry to take a whack at with a condemning.

There's another thing about that article that gets under my skin: John McCain. Here's one of McCain's quotes:

"This is the bitterest, most unsavory campaign in the nation's history," McCain said. "And it's only going to get worse."

No, Senator, it is not. Plenty of 19th century campaigns were much, much nastier.

Yes they were nastier. They were infinitely fairer, though, as you got both sides, instead of the way the Liberal media finds Republicans use, say, dirty tricks but Democrats never, ever do. Not only do they find some miniscule fault, but they hammer the fact on the electorate (in case some undecided clueless voter in Minnesota didn't know.)

McCain is nuts. Not perhaps certifiable. He doesn't need any more cells -- at least jail cells (that we know of). What he does need is truth serum and a course in ethics. Won't happen.

Orson Scott Card (Ender's Shadow, etc.) is endorsing Bush. He had this to say,
"I hope with all my heart that in 2004 the American people don't deserve John Kerry as their president."
