I sure don't!

I think this is going to be a very close race, and i'm worried about the repugs trying to steal it!

1. Johnny K gave us a chance to win it with his masterful debate performances
Now it is our job to GOTV.

We've got to win by 8-10% to keep the publicans from stealing it again.

If we all do our part in the next couple of weeks,

KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE!!!

2. That's how I feel
There is so much work to do, but we're in good position thanks to Kerry's fabulous debates.

I still worry about the touch-screens.

3. Be thankful it's close
That way Dem voters won't get complacent. Once a candidate gets too far ahead some of the less motivated supporters find it inconvenient to vote, especially if the weather is bad. I think the polls undercount poorer voters and young people. I think Kerry is farther ahead than the polls show. GREAT!

4. I never get the feel for these things. Like to see Kerry win.

5. Yes.
Kerry is beginning to pull ahead. He will win in November by 4% or more. While it is true that the republican machine is taking low dog actions as we speak to disenfranchise democratic voters -- and it will become ugly -- two things are going to keep Kerry in the lead: first, young people and mothers are facing up to the fact that under Bush, there will be a draft and thousands more young people will be forced to kill and die for Halliburton; and second, even a large number of republican men now recognize from watching the debates that Bush is not smart enough to be president. The votes from the moderate republicans are going to increase the size of the Kerry victory.
