I have almost answered my own question
If I run:
Tell application "Terminal"
Do script "ssh blah@blah" in window 1
Delay 10
Do script "mypassword" in window 1
End tell

It works if the Terminal is not already open or if there is a terminal
window on the screen, YEAH! But there are now two new problems.

The first problem is, if I run this script while Terminal is open but with
no active windows it gives me the error 3Terminal got an error:
NSArgumentEvaluationScriptError2.

The second problem is that if I am sshing into a host for the first time
then I will be prompted to give a yes no answer is there a way to trap for
this so I can include and if statement to output 3yes2??

Thanks Again for the help!
