  •  Froze your heart?? (none / 0)

    OK, well I really don't think "global test" was a very effective talking point, to say the least, and was not a good argument for Bush supporters. This one may be more potent, because the most desperate attacks sometimes work, but it seems like so many people want to believe Bush anyway, this quote may just be their excuse for doing so, and they'd go back to him no matter what Kerry said.

    The GOP has run so many ads. They were going to run ads about trial lawyers, they ran ads showing Kerry windsurfing...they're just desperate. That's why they're so dangerous.

      is what I think Kery meant when he used the term global: Comprehensive; total: "a... global, generalized sense of  . . . ."  Not # Having the shape of a globe; spherical. or # Of, relating to, or involving the entire earth; worldwide: global war; global monetary policies.

      •  Doesn't matter (none / 0)

        We're not running to win the hearts of grown-ups here. You have to say - terrorism bad, Osama bad, Saddam bad. It doesn't matter that invading the wrong country actually made us less safe. You can't convince people, in one election, of that. They equate bombs and armies with winning.
