... or Hillary's, unless you want to take seriously her efforts in the war on terror as first lady...

Then he went for economy - but that didn't work.
Then he went back to that staple of republican fear - gay marriage - and that isn't working.
So you think Kerry will motivate the republican base? LOL, sure it will.

We really hate Bush didn't work in 2002
We really really hate Bush didn't work in 2004
What makes you think we really really really hate Bush is going to work in 2006? Because the Clinton News Network is telling you it's working?

Will Military service that matter when it comes to Hillary's run?
It's not a qualification.

zipman said:Well first of all they didn't go on we hate Bush in 2000 at all.
In 2002 he still had the benefit of 9/11 and it wasn't used either.
In 2004 they did use it and it didn't work, but then again, the Bush strategy of painting a rosy picture of Iraq and Afghanistan hadn't been debunked yet.
Now they are more focused not only on Bush, but on the legislature that has given him a blank check for years. Big difference there.

Ishmael said:Of course you're speaking as a Republican, right?
So that Democratic congressman that said, "Not being content with blowing the 2004 election, Kerry seems to be trying to blow the 2006 election too." It seems that real, honest to God, Democratic political animals and strategists seem to be concerned where you're not. Good, I like blind faith and complacency in a political opponent.
Will it be enough to make a difference? Don't know. We'll never know for sure. But one thing I can tell you, Kerry is dead politically. Dead as a door nail. If he seeks the presidency again his opponents within his own party are going to beat him unmercifully with those words.

On the Friday prior to the Staurday morning liberation of Afghanistan, the Democrats began an orchestrated howl of a "Do-Nothing Administration" that was clearly in over it's head and soft on terrorism.
zipman said:Why? Are you speaking as a republican? *chuckle* (for ollie)![]()
So if I don't think it is an issue that will motivate the republican base then it must be blind faith? Got it.
I hope Kerry is dead politically. I didn't like him as candidate in 2004 and said so. He was a bad candidate who ran an inept campaign. But not too many people even notice him on the left anymore.

During the Black Hawk War, Abraham Lincoln of New Salem, Illinois served three enlistments. Each enrollment lasted for approximately 30 days.
His first enlistment was as elected captain of a company in the 4th Regiment of Mounted Volunteers, of Gen. Samuel Whiteside's Brigade. Lincoln enrolled on April 21, 1832, and mustered out with his company at Fort Johnson (Ottawa) on May 27, 1832. The company served at Beardstown, and reportedly Lincoln's company helped bury the dead of "Stillman's Run"— although this occurrence is still under investigation. Along with the muster-out of Lincoln’s company was the general muster-out of what became known as the “First Army” of Illinois. While a new army was being raised and organized, Illinois enlisted and mustered in a 20-day interim regiment (the so-called “Second Army”) and the only defense the State of Illinois had until the so-called “Third Army” could be brought into the field.
Lincoln re-enlisted on the same day he mustered out of his old company, and was mustered in on May 29 as a private in Captain Elijah Ises' Company, Twenty-Day Interim Regiment. He actively served with the company when General Henry Atkinson detached Captain Iles' command to ride north from Ottawa along the Kellogg Trail and reopen communications with Galena-- which had been out of touch with the rest of the world since the Felix St. Vrain Massacre. As part of this movement, Iles’ company (including Lincoln) spent an overnight at Apple River Fort... about a week before Black Hawk's attack against that strongpoint later in June. Once this ride was completed, the service of Iles’ company was essentially at an end. On June 16, Lincoln was mustered out.
Lincoln's third enlistment was as a private in Captain Jacob M. Early's "Spy Company." This unit mustered in approximately June 20, 1832, and served as part of General Atkinson’s army as it moved north through present-day Beloit, Janesvilles, the Storr's Lake encampment (west of present-day Milton, Rock County, Wisconsin) and on to the “Trembling Lands” east of present-day Fort Atkinson, Jefferson County, Wisconsin. Atkinson's food supply dwindled, and his solution was to muster out most of his militia. Accordingly, Early's company (along with Lincoln) was mustered out and discharged on July 10, 1832 near present-day Coldspring, Jefferson County, Wisconsin. The story goes that Lincoln had his horse stolen, so he and companion George Harrison (not the Beatle) reportedly walked and canoed several hundred miles back to New Salem.
