Sounds good on paper, but most of the people who voted Kerry, were actually voting AGAINST Dubya.

My 43 y.o. daughter is named Kerri. She is so happy Kerry is gone and hopefully forgotten forever.

So what's Kerry going to do? Go back to the US Senate he has been AOL from for the past two years and finally pass a law on his own after 20 years?

Now, the good people of Massachusetts should elect a new senator and send this a**hole loser packing.

"Senator Kerry will attend a post-election lame-duck Senate session next week and aides said he was relishing the prospect of renewed combat with President George Bush, fighting such measures as Mr Bush's proposal to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling."

Oh gee, another Kerry lie, another Kerry flip-flop:

Robert B. Bluey, CNSNews.com
Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2004
Teamsters union chief Jimmy Hoffa has confused environmentalists and free-market advocates after saying that Democrat front-runner John Kerry, if elected president, would "drill like never before" across the United States.

Hoffa made the comments Feb. 17 during a segment on "Hardball" with Chris Matthews. Matthews had asked Hoffa why the union chose to endorse the U.S. senator even though Kerry opposed drilling for oil in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

"Well, we talked about that," Hoffa responded. "He says, look, I am against ANWR, but I am going to put that pipeline in, and we're going to drill like never before."

The union supports drilling in ANWR and the creation of a natural-gas pipeline that could stretch from Alaska to Chicago. Neither plan draws support from Kerry's environmentalist base, however.

When Matthews pressed Hoffa for details on the promises Kerry made, the Teamsters president offered a vague response.

'Drill All Over'

"Well, they are going to drill all over, according to him," Hoffa said. "And he says, we're going to be drilling all over the United States. And he says that is going to create more jobs."

After the exit of Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri from the Democrats' presidential race, Kerry courted unions, including the Teamsters, to support his candidacy. He secured AFL-CIO's endorsement last week.

But Hoffa's comments have left Kerry's largest environmental backer confused about what the union chief meant by Kerry's intentions to "drill like never before."

Out of respect for your daughter I will cease and desist referring to 'Kerry' as 'Kerri'.

Bob Shrum, Kerry's chief campaign consultant, told reporters during a Democratic panel on Monday that Senator Kerry "will not do what Al Gore did after the last election - he will not disappear".

"He will be active and vocal," Mr Shrum said..

Oh good! just what the Dems need.. An uninspiring stiff that drones on and on to hang around as a reminder of what a bunch of losers they are.
