You know, that is an angle I never thought of. Of course the MSM would promote as much ad revenue as possible. It is the only reason anyone could be for a traitor.

Kerry's got a pretty good warchest built up. Hope he runs in '08.

A Kerry vs. Hillary contest for the Democratic nomination in 2008 would be a laugh fest for the Republicans. Hillary would get down and dirty and Kerry would freak out. I'm getting chuckles just thinking about it.

If Kerry runs and so does Hillary, he's really gonna be straitjacketed. Walkin' on eggshells, he'll be. Hard to see how he can go negative, because he'd be doing it against the 2nd (next to Bill) most popular member of his own party; whereas Hillary can throw all the mud she wants to at Kerry without any effect--in fact, given their lack of enthusiasm for him, I doubt the dem faithful would care.

Nobody seems to remember Kerry's bout with cancer. He had his prostate removed just last year. This time he should be forced to reveal his secret medical records. Oh, forget, the media knows he has lots of money for his advertisement on t.v. They will give him a free pass!

"Bring it on."

Is Kerry just now awakening from a coma?

We "brought it on" -- and Kerry was road-kill.

If Kerry's plan is to run in 2008, the pressure needs to start right now on getting him to sign SF 180. He is only a Senator again, so he should have to answer from questions from the press on this. I'm sure at least on enterprising journalist would see the opportunity to get a reaction from Kerry being called out on his lie to Tim Russert about already releasing all of his records.

The Clintons eased the Kennedys out from control of the Democrat Party so slick they did not even see it happening.

If the Kennedys go up against the Clintons, the Kennedys are going to come out second best.

Not only a great closer, but a brilliant man - of course, when the mainstream media hail someone as 'brilliant' they really mean 'someone who thinks like I do.'

I hear if he hadn't been drinking the night before his military exam, he would have done better, which would evidence a higher IQ than Dubya's.

Kerry is the man of 1,000 excuses - then again, what lib isn't?

Absolutely right - he just doesn't realize that the rest of the world and his party is laughing at him like his pants were down. He's washed up, yesterday's news, history....

He should have learned his lesson. The lesson every good D needs to learn: What Hillary wants, Hillary gets.

The "word on the street" from my friends in DC is that the reason he conceded with such grace is because he had his sights on 2008 during election night.

He knows Gore became a national pariah with his behavior after the 2000 election, and ruined any chance of another run. Kerry is so egotistical he actually thinks he is the "front runner" for 2008.

Better yet, let's start spreading the story that the Republicans are afraid of Kerry and that he is the only one that could beat us in 08. ;-)

John Kerry has wanted to be president all his life. He doesn't seem to have a reason for this quest other than ego gratification.

Dolly Kyle Browning (one of Clinton's former lovers) said of Clinton "I knew he would be president some day because it would kill him not to be president." Kerry seems cut from the same cloth.

Amazing when you think about it. Bush would have won by astronomical proportions if just a couple of those factors had been eliminated. The Dims are so dense and egotistical they don't even realize what it means that even a full court press couldn't produce a Bush loss.

Kerry would meet the same fate as a fellow Democrat did a century ago. Remember William Jennings Bryan? A three time loser and Kerry isn't half the man that Bryan was.

I don't think even the dems are dumb enough to run him again but in the meantime he is going to keep making a fool of himself. I bet the other dem senators roll their eyes from now on when he gets up on the senate floor and drones on and on, especially since he isn't going to get them anything.

I be Joe Biden has broken just about everything breakable in his house, and called Kerry every name in the book.

The word from the other side on DU (I know, I know) is that there's going to be a recount of votes in Ohio and all across the USA, because Mr. Olberman says so on his blog, and all of us who voted for President Bush are going to be howling mad, committing suicide en mass or going for therapy because Kerry Actually Won This Election!

Just warning everybody, so when it happens you can say you heard it from TwithanH first! /s
