This is a joke right? The GOP have nothing better to do than to try to smear a war hero's record.

Come on GOP tell us how you will run things and jumpstart the economy, end the war and save all our souls and America. Show me some hard work, show me why we should vote GOP.

Or will you just sit back and take the easy way and tell us why we shouldn't vote for Kerry?

I have an open mind believe it or not. I can change it and vote GOP. Hell, I love Ohio Sen. George Voinivich, Dewine is a puss but....

I know the Dems are doing it also, so you have to take the low road with them. After all they did want Bush's medical records and proof he served his time in the Guard.

See and I speak from watching my friends and the heart here when I say this. Articles like this and those from the Left and commentators like Hannity, Limbaugh and O'reilly or Moore, Franken and whomever (with their party's approval).... they only cater to those that already have their minds made up. They don't work to change minds so they spew hate and filth and hope something sticks and stinks badly enough to raise a little heat.

In the process though, unfortunately, they alienate alot of voters and people who might have voted because noone talks about how they truly want to help fix things. When all you give is pessimism all you will ever get back is negativism. We need politicians and a political party that is optimistic, has a plan, says we may have to swallow a few bad pills to fix things but then we'll be ok and when others are negative about them, they just say "join us and give us better ideas and help or sit there and complain and do nothing."

I firmly believe a vast majority would take the bitter if they knew the sweet was coming and would last longer, and as long as the party and the people working the changes did so with positive and informative atmosphere.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
