I hope so. Come on Hillary! Bring it on!

[prion]

Well, it's an interesting theory, but I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that...yes, this is a stupid man.

[Darkwolf377]

Makes sense, unlike his campaign.

I think this might not be too far off the mark,given all the "time outs" Kerry has given himself in the last year, brief vacations in one palacial playground or the other. I also think Kerry might have decided Teresa "does not have the psychological stamina or thick skin that will let him survive the challenges and rigors of the Presidency?"

Teresa has sort of faded from view since things started going south for Kerry.

Kerry is not use to hard work. Look how he is as Senator. Now he is realizing that being President is indeed hard work, and he will step down and Hitlery will step in.

[FesterUSMC]

Got to be the WORST candidate i have ever seen in my life. The guy is a Communist... I mean come on! A damn Communist! who wants to vote for that!

[kattracks]

His arrogance makes him stupid. I think he believed he could bamboozle the entire US because of his "wins" in Taxachusetts.

There might also be some behind the scenes griping from Terayzah.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

This is not a stupid man.

This is not presidential material.

[Allegra]

I think the man in his current meltdown is showing the unmistakable signs and actions of a person who has decided he really does NOT want to be President of the United States.

And is quite unfit to do so.

If the Dems switch candidates, it will only go to further demonstrate that the party is in complete disarray and we don't need anyone from that bunch trying to lead our country in these difficult times.

[cynicom]

I dont think so.

Kerry must know that the Clintons have moved in for the kill.

[dennisw]

I think this might not be too far off the mark.......


I think John Kerry is having his doubts about really wanting to be president. He showed zero leadership in the Senate. What kind of energy and commitment could he put into being president. Aside from the adulation, the pizazz and glamor of a presidential campaign, why the heck would he want such a demanding job? John Kerry has fits of ambition but is basically a lazy bas*ard who marries into money.

[Bon mots]

On the day when he goes into the voting booth and pulls the curtain shut behind him... he will vote for Bush. So will Theresa.

[ArmyBratproud]

I HAVE A QUESTION....

Does Anybody Know What Kerry Would Do If He Got Elected?!

I Have Not Heard Him Give Any Real Details As To What He Would Do...or...How He Would Pay For The Vaugue Half-Ideas He has Sorta Mentioned.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

He's definitely a guy who's bitten off WAY more than he can chew, and it shows. If he drops out, there may be a civil war between the Clintonistas and the radical Bush haters who have taken over the party.

[Casloy]

Has he come to the deep and painful understanding that he perhaps truly does not have the psychological stamina or thick skin that will let him survive the challenges and rigors of the Presidency?

This would require some deep introspection. What he did in Vietnam and with the VVAW proves he is incapable of deep introspection. He wants power and doesn't really think of much else beyond that. It's a moot point, because like it or not, in November he can go back to windsurfing and hanging out with the Ketchup queen.

[dennisw]

His arrogance makes him stupid. I think he believed he could bamboozle the entire US because of his "wins" in Taxachusetts.

***Courageous Viet war hero with 4 medals comes home and courageously tries to stop the US tragedy in Vietnam.*** This fable has played well in liberal Massachusetts for Kerry for the the 30+ years.

[Diddley]

Mark for later.

[tessalu]

This man is a turn coat on the USA. He is a terrible faker,
he will lie in ruin. Sure, everyone who hates the USA wants him elected.

[Imaverygooddriver]

Can you imagine what Reagan would say about this guy?.."Wellll I thought just having a Democrat in the White House was bad, but now they`re considering a communist? We must tear-down-that-wall!"
