From the editor:

Well - the over hyped debate was last night and now the spin begins. I was at the Air force - Navy game but was able to watch a re-run courtesy of CNN. I have commented in my Blog the 2 points that stood out for me. Check it out if you care.

Now that I am in the "club" (see related story below) I guess I will be a target for a Kerry tax increase - God forbid he should win. You can bet I won't be answering my window.

Thanks for your few minutes of support each week!

Here's something that should give you real comfort. 9 out of 10 French people would vote for Kerry if they could vote in our election. The same French that are in the middle of the Oil for Food scandal at the UN. Note to state election clerks - be on the lookout for ballots with post marks from France!!

 News from the campaign trail:

Things have gotten tough for the democratic presidential hopeful, John Kerry. Our campaign reporter followed him on his door to door campaign in Ohio to shake hands in an effort to get closer to the voters. Problem is no one was answering the door so Kerry resorted to knocking on windows. We have exclusive information that initially the cops were called when the candidate knocked on a home where no parents were home and the children did what any good child would do - call the police. When our reporter asked Kerry about the incident he snarled," don't you guys have anything better to do?". To which our reporter responded," we were going to ask you the same thing". Needless to say Kerry abandoned the campaign tactic and returned to knocking on doors.

Another great submission from my wonderful Aunt Dot!!

FLASH: Kerry stated: 'That's why they had to close down the subway in New York when the Republican Convention was there.' (Driving home point that Bush as not done enough to protect the country.)

The NYC subway did not close at all during the convention, according to a report on cable outlet NY1, even though Penn station was shut for several hours...
