He beat Howie Dean
He was the most liberal senator in the most liberal state in the union and he beat a moderate republican and even then he had to cheat
Bush is shaking in his cowboy boots

Kerry's come from behinds have all been in Massachusettes.
The USA ain't Massachusettes.
Edwards was a stupid selection.
Kerry/Edwards will not win one state in the South.

Again, and again and again--how many times does it have to be said that you're not running in liberal Massachusetts anymore, Toto? This is a whole new ball game.

John Kerry's Flag

Good luck with the comeback, Johnny. You don't have the "Vietnam Cudgel of Self-Righteous Holiness" to beat your opponent with this time.
The SwiftVets knocked it right out of your hands. This time you must actually run on the issues.

"This is the time when Kerry's near-mythic reputation as a strong closer based on his Senate campaigns dating to 1984 will be tested on a national stage".
Near-mythic? Give me a break!!! Against who? Appropriate from the Boston Globe though....... What a joke!

"...near-mythic reputation as a strong closer..."Against who? Republican unknowns who couldn't get elected dog-catcher in all-democrat Massachusetts? He's never run in an even contest in his life.

Click your ruby red slippers together Johnny boy, then open your eyes so you can see you aren't in Massachusetts anymore.

"You want three words of motivation?" he said late last month in Anoka, Minn., giving a preview of his fall strategy. "The Supreme Court. That alone is the motivation," ...Darn straight.

Remove the white stripes, sold red where the stripes are... 50 red stars on a field of yellow.

Remove the white stripes, sold red where the stripes are... 50 red stars on a field of yellow. It made me sick enough defiling the flag as much as I did, I felt it was necessary though to make a point to people so they understand this man is UNFIT FOR COMMAND! thats a book or something i think... :)

WTF????? When has Kerry ever needed to come back. A liberal from Mass is a shoe-in.
To: Always Right
"WTF????? When has Kerry ever needed to come back. A liberal from Mass is a shoe-in."
That's just it. EVEN IN TAXACHUSSETS, where he should never have had any problems to begin with, he DID have problems, he WAS behind, and he "came back" at the end to get elected.
That's what makes this supposedly "mythic" reputation so laughable in the first place. That as a Democrat he had to struggle so hard to win somewhere where not even Ted Kennedy has had to fight a real fight in ages says something, but it's -not- that he's a reliable winner of a candidate!
(Well, okay, I'm not sure that TK hasn't had any real fights for his seat or not, but I've never heard that he's had to, and he certainly hasn't had to earn a "comeback kid" reputation for it!)
