Kerry's Speech

One word: despicable.

More words: Mostly hollow. Non-specific. Promising so much that you can tell he's not serious, he's trying to over promise to cut against his weakness.

Speech is half over and he's already brought up his military service twice.

He's gone on for a long time now sanctimoniously defending himself against criticisms he has not received. I love hearing Dems moan and whine about being called unpatriotic, ...despite the fact that they have not been called unpatriotic in the first place.

"That flag belongs to all of us." Who said it didn't?

He just said that the election is about which party cares for children. Apparantly republicans don't care about kids, ...we must all live in gingerbread houses and lure kids into our cooking pot.

Here's a great quote from him: "I will not privatize social security."

Also, he just said that families were forced to wait for their tax cut so that Enron could have a tax cut instead. A lie. All of our taxes were cut.

Now here comes the laundry list of sorrow, ...bringing up sob story after sob story ...wow what a terrible country we live in. You'd think he was describing Carter's america.

Lots of Gephart style protectionism here.

Things seem rather subdued in the hall. Kerry is dull.

I'm getting a sandwhich and getting ready to watch the Simpsons, I've seen enough. Oh boy, ...here comes the social spending promises, head start, smart start, ...all that crap that doesn't work.

Kerry presidency ...Nightmare. Trainwreck.

I wonder how this will play in Peoria.
