Anyone but Bush...
Nov 04, 2004, 11:56
It all seemed so easy to them a few months ago. Kerry with backing from Moore and sadly also Noam Chomsky. It was like a huge popular front with lots of celebrity backing (which Dog3000 does have a point about). Though Sheryl Crow did look hot singing 'a change will do you good' in the early hours of the morning, they were clutching at straws.

The anyone but Bush campaign has proven to be a complete waste of time as not only did they fail in their objective but nothing much exists of it any more. The Bush camp seemed to me to have more people down on the ground and at grassroots level.

Party politics may be rubbish but there has do be a real alternative built up from the bottom involving all kinds of organisations.

Also what was the point of putting up a safe and mediocre candidate up. If they had put someone a bit more radical up he would still have lost (and yes even with a lower vote than Kerry) but at least it could laid the foundations for something better to build upon.

All they are left with know is a paper coalition which is now in the waste bin.
