I was listening to an interview with him on "As It Happens" on CBC/Radio Canada Int'l. He's travels with the Bush campaign, but was also at the Democratic Convention. He remarked at how little coverage there was of the protestors in NYC.
When asked to predict the winner of the election, he said it was hard, but he thought BUSH would win, because Kerry hadn't capitalized on the Iraq War at the convention...which is exactly what I heard MSNBC's panel...including Ron Reagan....last night. By "capitalizing" he was referring to the Kerry had really not clearly differentiated himself on Iraq.
Unfortunately, I was in the middle of reading Rashid Khalidi's "Resurrecting Empire" which takes to task the PNAC policies which Bush will be pushing for the next 4 years if he wins. Mayhem, money, death, etc. I suddenly felt VERY depressed...
If I could have one wish, it would be that the American public would be educated about the contents of Khaidis' book with regard to foreign policy and, domestically, what John Dean has to say in "Worse than Watergate." Two short but devastating books. Damned, I wish this campaign would bring this stuff to the public!
