Beware the Labels they are printing out:"Dukaksian," "McGovernite" ...
Edited on Mon Aug-04-03 02:50 PM by KoKo01
"Short Fused," "Peaking too Early," "...Candidate of Liberal Wing of the Democratic Party."

You know who I'm talking about....and it's starting. The labels are flying off the printer and they are trying to see which one they can make stick.

We know now how the "whore media" operates, after what we've seen in our past from Carter on. And, they're out in full force after this candidate. We need to watch this to see if any of these stick and if they aren't successful how they deal with it. So far, the attempts are so ridiculous I think they have some folks in the back rooms thinking up some back ups.

And, we need to watch out for this labeling with the other candidates. So far, this candidate has been pegged as the one to "take out." But, other's will follow depending on the polls.

2. Bring it on. Those pix of McGovern in his flight gear.
Put them next to the pix of the "Conquerer Worm" on the aircraft carrier.

3. Dean has the Repukes worried
Dean is the one.

My prediction, $170,000,000 will be spent in attack ads before the primary, all by the Committee to re-select Bush.

5. Yes, let the Repukes burn their money on planting Dean Attack Stories
Edited on Mon Aug-04-03 05:18 PM by KoKo01
and see in the end who wins.....Little David, or Mighty Goliath. Those RW Fundies and Bush with his "Born Again" better look to the Bible......because they are going to get bitten in their Butts thinking their mighy "Corporate Campaign War Chest" will out last the anger and perserverance of the "little Dems."

6. A New One: someone posted Rush said "Nikita Dean" that's a stretch.......
Limbaugh or "Limpballs" as some DU'ers call him......is really "out to lunch" on this one! I'm laughing wondering how many of his listening audience even knows who Nikita Krushchev was?

He's struggling......Rush is.....knowing his audience is becoming "restive." What if they leave him?

Well......didn't I hear he has some SportsCast deal going? I don't watch any sports...except obsure ones...but didn't Ruch just get a "contract" which will "tide him over" if his radio show tanks with Bush's polls in the coming months!

Rush......the "Ever Opportunist." He will survive while our jobs go to India and elsewhere. But, those "Freeps" will love him 'til the end. Ignorant A**es!

8. great post, koko
I was planning on starting one very similar. The names they are hanging on Dean make me feel the repugs are getting very nervous. Looks like they have decided to try and trash him now, and avoid the rush later.
They are working so hard to convince everyone that he is "extremely left wing" (and what is wrong with that?).
Tonights trick, on CNN, was to try to attach the label "McGovern" on him....associate McGoverns loss to Dean's run for the Presidency.
hmmmmm, makes me wonder. He is getting a lot more publicity, but the reports appear very slanted to me.
Labeling...we need to be watchful.
