Subject: Kerry -vs- Bush
Hi, we are Americans. We like to elect actors. And post 9/11, Ah-nold sells.
W. simply plays better on tee vee (he does working class drag well) than Brahim Kerry who talks down to most Americans, "To the contrary...". The Dems, except for Bill Clinton, come off as indecisive and ineffectual, which are traditionally not leadership qualities. The Dems cannot get away with being GOP lite -- it doesn't work. And, Kerry's kitesurfing photo-op, not too manly...

Dear Mimi, Fellows:
I do not think it is fair to blame George W Bush for being elected
president. The guy never claimed to be a "rocket scientist".
He is a simple wealthy man from Texas,
who believes in moral value of bashing homosexuals,
who tries to achieve peace by waging wars,
who strives to become a uniter by dividing the country,
who looks like a strong manly cowboy from B-movies.
Blame the country that possesses 59,000,000 dummies who saw what Mr.
Bush was and voted for him anyway.
I can only pity your inability to appreciate Kerry.
Kerry truly is a real man, and he proved it in Vietnam, and right after
by standing up to Nixon, and by uncovering Reagan's crimes, etc.
Above all, Kerry is an intellectual. How often do we have a chance to
elect an intellectual? He could have become one of the great presidents...
I did all I could by publishing two letters in New York Times, by
contributing time and money.
In the end, you ought to blame all of us, Americans, for the choice we
made.
It may affect not only us but the whole world...
Is Mr. Rove a subscriber? I hope he is.
