Tonight, April 21, Democratic party Presidential candidate John 'F-is-for-flipflop' Kerry and Theresa Heinz made a fund raising and campaign appearance at the Bal Harbor Sheraton near Miami Beach, Florida. Nationally prominent Dems present included Senator John Corzine, Senator Bob Graham and Senator John Edwards. Elian Gonzales' attorney Kendall Coffe was also there along with prominent Florida Democrat Jimmy Morales.
It was hard to determine which was the greater problem with the event: lack of attendance or lack of enthusiam since both were very evident. Approximately 250-300 people stood silently listening to Senator Kerry's droll recitation of his by now familiar stump speech until some could take no more and began to leave first by twos and threes and then in larger groups. After Kerry finally said something that got an applause--about replacing John Ashcroft as Attorney General--he ended his speech, shook hands with John Edwards and quickly left the stage with Ms. Heinz the ketchup heiress in tow.
If this Kerry event is indicative of the quality of the remainder of the Kerry Presidential campaign, President Bush should, barring some unforseeable tragedy, win in November--handily.
