In any endeavor,a man who doesn't know the depth of his conceit is doomed to failure.
LOL
Being p-whipped by a hoary old troll like Teresa didn't help, either.
That first sentence is nothing but him telling us he's a victim.
I understand they are still accepting votes in Ohio and Washington.
no Kerry was already divorced. His two daughters were not with Teresa, but with his first wife.
who married a"scumbag", nutzo woman with LOTS of money.....
At least she had Susan Sontag's hair.....
"it's mostly sitting around some lawyer's office and asking each other if we've heard about jobs
I hear they are looking for septic tank cleaners.
( prior job skills are a plus)
Though Kerry did not directly criticize his friend Bob Shrum, it's clear he did not feel well served by his message makers and speechwriters.
Kerry wanted to show a letter from a schoolgirl that had been left on his stoop. The letter read, in part, "John Kerry, you're the greatest!" Kerry looked into the reporter's eye. "The pundits have never liked me," he said. "Is it the way I look? The way I sound?"
In the heady days before the election, Kerry's top aides sat around picking a cabinet. Nowadays the foreign-policy team still meets on the assumption that it could be reconstituted for '08. But the reality is, "it's mostly sitting around some lawyer's office and asking each other if we've heard about jobs," says a member of the team.
As for Kerry, says this adviser, "he thinks he's the frontrunner for '08 without recognizing that he needs to do some soul-searching. If he wants to come back, he'll have to come back as a different candidate, not the stiff who plays it safe and takes four sides of every issue."
That's okay, Allot of people get divorced. just don't ask me to feel bad for you.
What sort of idiot would make the centrepiece of his presidential campaign four months of proud service in a war he's best known for opposing? ... How cocooned from reality do you have to be to think you can transform one of the most divisive periods in American history in which you were largely responsible for much of the divisiveness into a sappy, happy-clappy, soft-focus patriotic blur without anybody objecting? Most Vietnam veterans of my acquaintance loathe John Kerry, and, if he wasn't aware of that, he's too out of it to be President.-- Mark Steyn.
Twice.
I did not know that. Any websites or books I could read?
"Kerry seemed particularly interested in trying to find a way to speak to ordinary voters that didn't sound too grandiose or "political.""
Most BS artists have this problem.
The deeper problem may be Kerry's personality, which may be too distant or reserved to win mass affection. As Thomas left Kerry's house in November, Kerry called out and followed him down the street. Kerry wanted to show a letter from a schoolgirl that had been left on his stoop. The letter read, in part, "John Kerry, you're the greatest!" Kerry looked into the reporter's eye. "The pundits have never liked me," he said. "Is it the way I look? The way I sound?" He seemed vulnerable for a moment, then caught himself, smiled and walked home to his empty house.
Good freakin' gravy.

"It is amazing that such a mega-narcissistic arrogant fraud could have come so close to being President. This lunatic/psychopath got 48% of the vote."
Exellent point. It's been two months now, and every morning I still wake up with gratitude, feeling like my country dodged a bullet.
I worked on Bush's campaign here in Wisconsin, and I'll tell you from first hand experience that both passion for President Bush and fear and loathing for Kerry were emotions that you couldn't separate for love nor money. I pray we never, ever have this close of a race again, on any level. It makes for great press, but when you're in the trenches it's amazingly draining.
I don't know how anyone does this for a living...Wisconsin only lost to Kerry by under 12K votes. (Personally, I smell fraud, but I'm done with it and don't want the opposition thinking Wisconsin Republicans are the sore losers Democrats have proven themselves to be in other states.)
Were you folks aware that He was a Vietnam vet???
holy schnikies Batman!
