Lloyd Grove says Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) loyalists "are kicking themselves for cooperating last year with filmmaker Steve Rosenbaum on Inside the Bubble, a potentially devastating behind-the-scenes look at the Massachusetts senator's failed presidential campaign."
"I'm also told that Hillary Clinton partisans are licking their chops to see the film, which 'could end up being the silver bullet that kills Kerry's presidential chances for 2008."
The film won't be seen publicly until Thursday, but a press release claims the movie "turns a harsh but deeply revealing mirror on the campaign ... a disorganized, contentious, self-absorbed team that thought they could win by 'not making mistakes,' and keeping their candidate in the public eye without clarifying a position on anything."
Key highlights from those who've seen it privately: "Clinton scowling and rolling her eyes over an apparent Kerry gaffe during a presidential debate; Kerry pretending to interview himself and babbling in Italian while waiting for a real interview to begin; Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) cursing at reporters during a campaign stop, and Kerry message guru Robert Shrum confidently declaring a few days before the 2004 election: 'Zogby just announced who's gonna win. Us!'"
He doesn't. Anti-Bush forces were so bored and annoyed with Kerry, few of them could manage to rouse themselves to do anything for the Kerry campaign. I'm sure in areas where the weather was bad on election day, many of them decided not to bother. Only Republicans would like to see Kerry run again.
I can't wait to see this!!!
Where will the film be available I wonder?
The comment about Kerry's chances in 2008: He had zero chance of being the Democrat nominee even before this film. Why do people seriously mention his candidacy as a possibility?
Ooooo yea! "Serenity"'s gonna ROCK. I just finished watching all the DVD's. I can't believe they only did a single season, it's one of the best Sci-Fi shows ever made. It's wantonly individualistic, frontier, free-market, and quite witty and humorous. It had it all!
Well, at least the movie's here, and Sci-Fi channel will be buying the future rights for a reconstitution of the series (so I hear).
The longer Kerry looks viable, the better it is for us!
Oh wait, now I know who it is. The guy with that crazy wife who likes her raisins spiked with gin right?
Terrified of the mirror ...
hmmmm --
like being afraid of one's shadow.
Forgot to say, that's what happens when you have a corrupt soul to hide and you allow someone other than a sold-out M. Moore type to do the "creative" work.
Hillary and Crew know better than to make that mistake. She's so much like Stalin in that regard.
I wonder if its in the film where, after the phony exit polls came out, one of Kerrys stooges asked if he could be the first one to call him Mr. President. LOL. Someone on the inside said everyone was running around talking about who was going to get to work in the WH and who was going to Washington and who wasn't. This, based on phony exit polls! What a bunch of dorks!
Remember the Newsweek "behind the scenes of the campaign" bit that ran right AFTER the election? At one point, he said "I can't believe this guy is beating me," or words to that effect (Ironic words: SNL had a sketch spoofing the '88 prez debate, with Dana Carvey imitating Bush I: "Stay the course. Thousand points of light," etc. Dukakis (Jon Lovitz) looks straight at the camera: "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy".
Which is what I like to tell liberals these days: You thought Bush was such a dummy, but if that's true, what does that say about Kerry who couldn't beat him in the election? If Kerry was so good he should have won, and won SOUNDLY.
I think that was actually Bob Shrum.
The only way a liberal can win an election is to not clarify his position on anything. This is nothing new.
"Let me be the first to call you Mr. President."
Kerry Campaign Strategist Bob Shrum to John Kerry after early exit polls predicted his victory.
--Georgetown Voice
I predict Mary Beth Cahill will never work again after this film is released.
Is this being released to theaters,pay per view, hbo, etc?I've said it before, Kerry is a DORK. And per my nephew, a dork is a whale penis.
The moonbats who supported him still have Kerry stickers on their cars, and some MORE stickers appeared after the election. Part of it is "I'm so smart, I voted for the 'right guy' even though he lost" but part of it is definitely "2008!!" Deluded.
Far more likely, the film will be a disappointment.
