At any moment, Kerry's war crimes trump the Abu Grahib prison scandal.

I think your Torricelli comment is dead on-target. My nightmare scenario has long been that Kerry was just a stalking horse and that the DNC's *real* strategy was to get through the primary campaigns, generate lots of media attention and donations, then have Kerry drop out for some reason and hold an open convention at which Hillary could descend from the clouds to rescue the country.

But the flaw in this plan was that there was an outside chance an open convention might go for Dean or Edwards, so the Clintonians had to come up with a new strategy, and this might be it. If Kerry does not accept at the convention, the Dems still get to hold their four-day nationally televised lovefest and infommercial, and suck up all available oxygen in the country; then Kerry is nominated but doesn't accept; and four or five weeks later, citing "personal reasons" (Didn't he have a bout with cancer a few years back? Has he ever released his medical records?) he withdraws. By then it's too late to hold another convention and far too late to have any primaries, so a small cabal of DNC leaders gets together to appoint their candidate, far away from prying eyes (just like the college of cardinals picking the next pope), and lo and behold, they pick Hillary!

Doing it this way will accomplish three important things:

1. It instantly negates whatever politicial lift the Republicans were expecting from their convention and sucks the wind out of GWB's sails.

2. It puts Hillary at the head of the national ticket without ever exposing her to primary voters, forcing her to debate her ideas with other Democrats, or even having to speak directly to the unwashed masses.

3. From here on out, she can conduct her campaign entirely in the left-learning forum of the national news, using ALL the funding the Democrats have acquired for the final putsch.

So tell me, is this just a nightmare?

Omigod. I just figured it out. Kerry has never released his service medical records or the specific reports on how he earned his purple hearts.

So here's what happens: five weeks after the Democratic convention Kerry releases his Vietnam service records, and citing the combat-related disability he's kept hidden for all these years he drops out of the race, thus clearing the way for Hillary.

Oh, the national media would have a collective orgasm over that story!

Summer is upon us. Let's try to start making the name John Kerry synonymous with flip flop. I propose phrases like the following: "The weather was so nice, I slipped on my John Kerrys and read under the tree."

My problem with this scenario is getting Kerry to step aside voluntarily and without incident. I believe he is so power hungry (he's been living his entire adult life for the opportunity to be President) that he will not step aside gracefully, FBI files or not.

Then again, whenever I try to predict what one of these lefties will do in a given situation, I'm usually wrong.

From the emails today.

While suturing a laceration on the hand of a 70-year-old Massachusetts farmer whose hand had been caught in a fence while working his livestock, the doctor and the old man were talking about Senator John Kerry possibly being in the White House one day. The old farmer said, "Well, ya know, that Mr. Kerry is what we call a 'post turtle'."

Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked him what a post turtle was. The old man said, "You know. When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain, "You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just want to help the poor stupid bastard get down so he can crawl away..".

Kerry's contention that he won't be "nominated" until he "accepts" answers the question as to how HRC gets around the pesky problem of all those committed delegates Kerry holds. IMHO, the Democratic convention will turn into a Hillary love-fest. At its conclusion, the press will be saying "who is John Kerry? the name sounds familiar but ..." Kerry will slink off into the Vietnamese sunset and the press will anoint HRC the nominee. It won't matter what Joe six-pack democrat thinks - as if they would object - and there will be no way for them to voice an objection.

I've been wondering, too.

Question is:
"When will the real dirty stuff come out about Kerry's past?

So far it all seems to have fallen on the deaf ears of the lamestream media.

If Kerry has not selected a VP by nomination time then I would get suspicious, but Hillary still would get beat by Bush. If Hillary is the VP get ready for the switch.
