Kerry also employed Paul Revere's famed midnight run and imagery of Bunker Hill to bash President Bush over U.S. intelligence failures.

"These are the places where people dared to stand up and put their lives on the line — to take a risk — for something they believed in very deeply," Kerry said of the Boston neighborhood where he was speaking.

"One if by land, two if by sea, and the message was right. Come to think of it, they had better intelligence than we do today about what's going on," Kerry continued, drawing the loudest applause of the event.

Let me see - Kerry spent eight years on the Senate Intelligence Committee - and he voted to cut the budget. Hey Johnny, this is not a good issue for you.

In Harrisburg, Kerry noted that there was more bad news coming out of the financial markets yesterday, with oil prices reaching new highs and economic growth limping along at three percent.

I heard a talking head say that the market wasn't going to like Kerry bashing the Saudis in his speech. Wonder if this is the market reaction.

3% (3.75% in 2004) is "limping"? Kerry's trying to outdo Algore in the stupid pr-ck department!
