The New York Times > Washington > Campaign 2004 > Bush Planning August Attack Against Kerry:

WASHINGTON, July 31 ? President Bush's campaign plans to use the normally quiet month of August for a vigorous drive to undercut John Kerry by turning attention away from his record in Vietnam to what the campaign described as an undistinguished and left-leaning record in the Senate.
Mr. Bush's advisers plan to cap the month at the Republican convention in New York, which they said would feature Mr. Kerry as an object of humor and calculated derision.

yup, junior high was about the first time i ran into "calculated derision"...
