Sorry dude, didn't mean to ruin your important day. Get a grip, man, it's an election, it's not your life.
This forum functions effectively because folks follow the posting guidelines. And this is a critical time for a lot of folks. Why did you think your attempt at humor merited breaking news standing? Don't you think that folks looking at the sidebar without opening your post would believe that Kerry actually said that and could possibly be misinformed by your action?
The Breaking News sidebar is reserved for only very big events. Let's keep it that way.
