1. Campaign Buzz: Early Results, Lieberman's
Code
NewsMax's intelligence network hears:
• Early results. Polling of
early convenience voting in states like Florida are not going well for President
Bush. Republicans expected this, with the enormous resources pumped into the
voter efforts of Democrats.
• Democratic vote buying. We
have already reported on the Ohio Democratic operative that was allegedly
offering free crack cocaine to new voters. We hear that in key swing states, the
Democrats are offering early voters lulus such as free breakfast or lunch if
they get on their bus and go vote.
John Fund, who has authored the important book,
"Stealing Elections," reports he has heard of Democrats offering money to people
who register new voters. These operatives receive a fee – half of the fee is
paid when the new voter registers and the other half when they vote. Fund says
that's tantamount to illegally buying votes. [Get John Fund's book

• Kerry's anti-war record. A
top political strategist in New York complained to NewsMax that the Bush
campaign never raised the issue of Kerry's anti-war activities and his secret
meetings with the Viet Cong. "If Jewish voters heard Kerry was not just a
protester, but was actually having meetings, many would stay at home," the
strategist said.
Despite the fact the Swift Boat Vets' initial ads
caused Kerry's ratings to sink, and that Kerry's campaign clearly fears the
documentary "Stolen Honor" being shown, the Bush campaign has made no effort to
help press that message home to voters. [Get your copy of 'Stolen Honor'

• Joe Lieberman's secret code.
NewsMax was one of the few media outlets to report that Democratic Senator Joe
Lieberman took the unusual step of praising President Bush while chiding John
Kerry during a recent campaign stop in south Florida.
Remarkably, Lieberman praised Bush strongly for
his support of Israel. "We are dealing with a president who's had a record of
strong, consistent support for Israel. You can't say otherwise," Lieberman said.
He then chided Kerry. "And I think John Kerry, to reassure people, has to
himself be explicit" in his support of Israel rather than having surrogates
deliver the message.
So what did all of this mean? Prominent New York
Reform Rabbi Morton H. Pomerantz said, "Joe Lieberman is speaking in code. Any
Jew hearing that knows exactly what he is saying: 'Vote for Bush, Kerry is a bad
guy.'"

2. Media Bigs Spend Big for Kerry
Yes, Walter Cronkite and the New York Times have
admitted their leftist bias, and CBS's Dan Rather and ABC's Mark Halperin and
Peter Jennings are among the latest to reveal more about theirs, yet many in the
establishment media still try to deny reality.
But the next time someone claims most media don't
have a liberal bent, cite this report.
Democrats get the overwhelming share of donations
from news and entertainment media tycoons, Broadcasting & Cable reports.
Take, for example, Cox Enterprises (the media
giant which owns numerous outlets including the Atlanta Journal Constitution)
and its director, Ann Cox Chambers who claimed to the magazine: "President Bush
creates chaos in whatever theater he turns his attention to. I think four more
years would be catastrophic for any of our companies, as well as every other
company."
A vice chairman of John Kerry's campaign, she has
raised more than $100,000 for him and has funded his Bush-hating 527 groups.

3. Behind Joe Biden's 'Brain Dead' Insult
When disgraced Sen. Joe Biden called President Bush "brain dead" this past
week, we yawned and then wondered which thug in John Kerry's presidential
campaign he cribbed the attack from.
Recall that Biden was forced to drop his campaign for the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1988 because he had plagiarized from British pol Neil
Kinnock.
And who blew the whistle on Biden's scandal back then? Michael Dukakis'
handler John Sasso.
Sasso had to quit Dukakis' campaign because he backstabbed Biden. But whom
does he work for now? John Kerry.
Considering Kerry's link to Sasso, you have to wonder why Biden is stooping
to such sleazy new lows to "help." Or does he hope his nastiness will backfire
and hurt his own party's nominee for his own personal revenge?

4. What the Left Thinks of Pro-Bush GIs
Some Democrats were furious about the National Annenberg Election Survey's
finding that GIs and their families trust President Bush over Sen. John Kerry by
3 to 1.
A regular NewsMax reader and letter writer who often shares with us the
unique perspective of the Left Coast university town of Berkeley, weighed in:
"It is reported the Military personnel trust and prefer Bush to Kerry. In
that case, it would be wiser to get rid of the stupid, over-inflated army than
have 4 more Bush years. I suppose the average soldier is rather stupid and
couldn't get a job elsewhere. They probably think they will go straight to
Heaven if they die for Bush, U.S., Jesus and Big Daddy of Sky Ranch."
Apparently John Edwards was right: There are two Americas.

5. In California this Monday, at the Reagan Library . . .
Vanity Fair writer Bob Colacello's new book on Nancy and Ronald Reagan has
gotten rave reviews from Reaganites and even Reagan critics. Colacello's "Ronnie
and Nancy, Their Path to the White House 1911-1980" offers perhaps the most
extensive understanding of the love affair that changed America and the world.
On Monday, October 25, Colacello will be at the Reagan Library at 1:00 p.m.
to discuss and sign his new book. The lecture begins at 1:00 p.m. and the book
signing begins at 1:30 p.m. This event is free to attend. If you need further
info, call 805-522-2977.
