John Kerry: Democrats’ woes stem from uninformed voters
Boston Herald ^ | 9/25/10 | Hillary Chabot

A testy U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry yesterday blamed clueless voters with short attention spans for the uphill battle beleaguered Democrats are facing against Republicans across the nation.

“We have an electorate that doesn’t always pay that much attention to what’s going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or the truth or what’s happening,” Kerry told reporters after touring the Boston Medical Center yesterday.

Conservative political blogger William Jacobson, who writes Legal Insurrection, immediately pounced on Kerry’s comments, saying that attitude is why voters are looking to shake up Capitol Hill by electing upstart candidates such as U.S. Sen. Scott Brown

Good job John, not only have ‘rats policies alienated voters... (with good cause) ... Now you’re going to insult them too? You and Mr. Buffet reading from the same playbook?

John Kerry’s real problem is that voters are paying attention.People are figuring out who these F’ers really are.

Yes, John, us ignorant masses are still clinging to our guns and religion. That is something you elites will never understand.

By the way, have you been to Cambodia lately or are those memories still seared in your mind?

Yea, you can’t make this stuff up. Their whole party runs on slogans rather than facts or truth.
If you wrote this as a fiction novel, no one would publish it as no one would believe it.

By “out of touch” he means not properly indoctrinated into the Marxist worldview.

The botox is leaking into his brain pan and the tanning bed is frying the brain cells. His latest economic plan that all of the unemployed marry wealthy Republican widows is short-sighted as there are just not enough to go around.

More likely that they are reading from the same George Soros checkbook.

Oh, if only we could all be as worldly and wise as John (’D Student’) Kerry.

More whining from the Left.

I’m looking forward to seeing the “Official Seal of the Democrat Party” more and more as we approach November and beyond.

If the voters were informed, John, then the Dems would be a tiny minority in both Houses, and a Republican would be President. You would be cruising in your Yacht full time. Oh, that’s right... Forgot that’s what you do anyway.

Why is it that whenever the voters get pissed at government, the Communists call us ignorant? And why are half of us willing to put up with it?
