BOSTON (AP) -- At the end, John Kerry looked for a little luck to carry him through.
Upon his return to Massachusetts after more than five weeks of nonstop campaigning, Kerry bent over and touched the ground. He ate his traditional election-day lunch of littleneck clams and a dark beer at his lucky restaurant, Boston's historic Union Oyster House.
He was loaded down with other charms - a four-leaf clover, an Ohio buckeye, Bruce Springsteen's guitar pick, his hat from Vietnam, a Bible from former Sen. Max Cleland, rosary beads, a cross and a medal of St. Christopher, the patron saint of travelers. He had been to church three times in the two days before the election.
After months of campaigning, the choice was out of his hands.

I thought he believed in God? His faith has no works... he trusts in false gods is all I can gather from this story...

A TRAITOR needs luck to win the Presidency in America. The American people are not stupid. Kerry is going to loose BIG TIME!

If someone says "Osama" does he have to throw salt over his shoulder or just put his hands over his hears and recite "see no evil, hear no evil..."

"He ate his traditional election-day lunch of littleneck clams and a dark beer at his lucky restaurant"The bill, I'm sure, was picked up by someone else.
Another one of his election routines.

He is no more Catholic than my cat. I hope he looses just for disgracing the Catholic Church.

Just what we need in the white house.
A crisis occurs, Kerry runs to his beads, his charms, his tea leaves, calls France, Germany, and checks his astrology chart before making a decision.
Meanwhile, the country suffers another terrorist strike during his indecisive scurrying around.
What a Rat.

It's reported that he also had a bit of James Carville's hair, a big glass of Kool-Aid in a DU glass, a towel that had some of Al Gore's flop sweat on it, and the butt of the famous Lewinsky cigar that Yasser Arafat smoked. Tonight he is expected to bang on Bill Clinton's bongos for luck.
If that doesn't do it, Kerry is reported to have Larry Flynt standing by so he can rub his belly button.

Men of FAITH don't believe in good luck charms, they put their trust in God and thus receive blessings from God.

What a conglomoration -- devoid of any real thinking. The man's (non-existent) trust in God equivalent to his trust in a four-leaf clover, a rabbits foot (or whatever) a beer, and a mess of clams.

Kerry Sticks to Lucky Election Day Routine
Let me fix one word for Kerry. He left out the UN.
The correct wording should be Kerry Sticks to UNLucky Election Day Routine. Go Bush, 4 more years.

There some good potential for you here...
