and then some more of the good news!

John Kerry unveiled a new stump speech at the Iowa Democratic Dinner, and it's a good one. Calling for a Real Deal to replace the Bush Raw Deal, he declared "Iowa Democrats, it’s time to get real. George Bush thought he could play dress-up on an aircraft carrier in front of a sign saying “Mission Accomplished” and we wouldn’t notice that our troops are dying in Iraq every day. That Americans on the farm and in our factories are hurting and struggling every day. That George Bush has lost two jobs every minute and run up the deficit a billion dollars every day.

But we did notice. We reject the cynicism and radically wrong direction of this Administration. And we’re here to say that tonight marks the beginning of the end of the Bush Presidency."

Right on, John!
