"Don't think about any poll," Kerry said.

"It doesn't matter if it's ahead or behind. All that matters is what you do between now and November. (of 2005)"

Kerry criticized the Bush administration on several occasions during his speech, saying other Americans struggle economically while the wealthy have thrived. Kerry also expressed outrage over the response to Hurricane Katrina.
