It's also interesting that the whacko callers didn't engage in the fonda talking pt or were as intense when HoHo was the front runner.

sure some of it can be attributed to bush being down 7 pts in gallup.

And we've always said, HoHo more than anyone else, would peel away conservatives, libertarines, independents, and reagan democrats.

But there's something else at work, and there are people who would vote for HoHo, Clark, and Edwards, by force of personality, if not policy, who won't vote for Kerry, and that will hurt in a close election.
