IN. A. LANDSLIDE. | not a PREDICTION or a CONCLUSION
I originally posted this in a slightly different form a week or so back. My intent was not to 'jinx' anything or to suggest that we could sit back and watch the landslide,
oh no, we have to be part of the landslide.
While my home state and city (NYC) will safely go for Kerry I still tell EVERYONE to vote. I don't care how red or blue your state is. Vote.
A solid electoral win and a significant popular vote win will mean a MANDATE. MASSIVE TURNOUT across the country is our best hope for neutralizing BBV and other voter manipulations.
It's a little 'pep rally' speech. The kind of thing I've done dozens of times for the cast of a show just before curtain. Believe it and Achieve it.

IN A LANDSLIDE
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDEKERRY IN A LANDSLIDEI'd be the last person to suggest that the election is in the bag and we can just sit back and wait for Bush to be crushed. There's a great deal of work that must be done.
But, why NOT approach the closing week with a unified confidence?
Whenever I hear a jittery Dem concerned about 'polls' I just say:
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE.
I could go into an extended explanation of 20th century polling methodology in a 21st century election. I could quote statistics on new and un-pollled voters. I could point out that worrying about a NATIONAL poll is utterly pointless.
But, I just say:
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Enough said.
And, as far as kool-ade drinkers go? You can't change a 'mind' that won't engage. Screw 'em! Project unshakable confidence.
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Let them sputter. As far as I'm concerned, a bush win is unworthy of consideration.
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE. Go away. The best they've got is stealing yard signs and bush is out preaching to his so-called 'base' while real conservatives are attacking.
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE.
As I say above, it doesn't mean sitting back and waiting. It does mean going into the final weeks with utter confidence that a MASSIVE TURNOUT will elect Kerry and send the chimp whimpering back to his 'ranch' an even bigger, and more miserable failure than his Poppy.
