Ed Schultz callers are advocating Kerry showing up in Iraq

[CatWoman]

during the RNC Convention.

good idea or bad?

1. I fear for his safety over there.

13. sounds interesting but...

I don't think it will benefit him, the media will use it against him. He needs to take time off during the GOP convention.

Although I usually listen to Air America, it seemed they had a rerun of Randy Rhoades, so I finally got a chance to listen to Ed Shultz. I liked his show but was surprised how many righties he has call in.

2. bad imho

He should let the Republicans have their convention without staging any publicity stunts.

[rucky]

3. BAD

he needs to be meeting people and discussing things that matter to us...

not some Bushesque plastic turkey media stunt.

[Kahuna]

4. Bad idea. It reeks of pandering and desperation.

5. hmm, interesting kinda like Ike's famous "I will go to Korea"

which is credited with sewing up the '52 election for him. But as for Kerry, No, I don't think he should. He would be accused of grandstanding.

[buycitgo]

12. excellent point

he should SAY he's going there right away, and spend some time IN THE FIELD with the TROOPS, cause he knows what it's LIKE out there

what he won't be doing is passing out plastic turkeys, like the one in the offal office!

6. nope, too obviously political, but Kerry should continue campaigning

just as he does regularly. or maybe take some time off because things are really going to start intensifying after the republican convention.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

16. Kerry and Edwards should take a well deserved four day rest

At most they should relax and work the phones without having to press the flesh. They can also rest their speaking (speech) voices.

7. How about showing up at the "free speech zone"?

[readmylips]

9. Kerry @ NYC free speech zone....with Bruce Springsteen...

now...that would be pretty.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

8. Bad.

Who is Ed Schultz?

[physioex]

10. Some radio talking head who is supposedly a "liberal"...

But I have my suspicions about the guy....

[Myrina]

14. Ed makes no bones that he used to be a Pug ...

... but has emerged from the dark side in the last couple years.

Yeah he has righties call in, but he blah-blah blah's their stupidity and shouts them down just like Al and Randi and everyone else on AAR.

[physioex]

11. Bad idea....

Too much like a publicity stunt. Let the have their lime light. And we can go at them in the debates...

[union_maid]

15. No way - they'll kill him

In that very convenient fog of war nothing will ever be proved. It would just be too easy for them.

[zulchzulu]

17. Nah...

Maybe he should do some interviews outside of Madison Square Garden talking about the lies they are saying about him.

[AgadorSparticus]

18. very bad. kerry needs to keep his nose to the grind here at home.

he has much work to do yet. in a perfect world where elections are clean and every vote counts, kerry would win hands down. but this is america under seige and we still have a huge fight yet in front of us.
