You're surprised these scumbags did something like this?
Kerry did a very purposeful back-slap... I think he knows. Always curious what he found, and if it was anything, why he didn't say anything.
What I wonder is if it would have mattered. Bush lost all three debates and still won the election. Do you think if he was found out to have been cheating that it would have made a big dent?
I think how much it mattered would depend somewhat on what, exactly, the bulge was/is, and how it was being used. I haven't come to any conclusions, myself, but the possibility of it being some sort of medical device sounded rather plausible, when this was all being discussed. If THAT's what it is -- if its exposure also exposed some serious medical condition that Bush is trying to hide -- I think that could well have affected the election.
I seem to remember somewhere that they finally said that it was a bullet-proof vest. I guess that's plausible, but he was kind of acting like someone was feeding him answers.
Even so, assuming he was cheating, you think maybe people would just say, well, he's not good with words so he got help, big deal? I mean, if his embarrassing performance wasn't enough to turn voters off, I'm not sure if his cheating would do it either. But maybe that's just the cynic in me talking.
Oh dear, I thought you were referring to the bulge someone called a 'moose knuckle' when Bush was walking toward the sailors on the aircraft carrier in order to tell them the war was over. Gosh, that was exciting. And the moose knuckle was pretty impressive as well. Do you think socks are used for that or Kleenex?
I know what you mean, FreeDuck. The first debate was a clear win for Kerry, but as I remember the second two were much closer, and Bush supporters could somewhat plausibly claim a win or at least a tie. I really think proof that he was outright cheating would've counted for something. Mebbe not.
Election aside, I'm just terribly curious if it really is anything at all (I'm skeptical, but haven't been convinced that it's nothing yet) and if so, what.

at the time, i think i posted some stuff that i'd found on one of our old line cards that pretty much fit the bill. concluding that maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.
i don't think it would have made much difference to the people that were determined to vote for dubya. he's their guy for much different reasons.
it is quite a brain teaser though, isn't it ?
I'm always astounded about the flurry of activity you people generate over unproven accusations about anything that Bush does.
It proves he is doing a great job when he annoys a bunch of "lefties".

Do you have any idea how many lifetimes it would take to dig up every instance of the number of times those fanatics have planted both feet in their mouths. One thing can be said though they are too stupid to realize it as attested to by the lack of winning any elections.
