McCurry defends the Kerry camp and says he doesn’t think they got off message in August. “I think Bush got on message,” he says. HUH? So McCurry is saying that most people agree with Bush's message.

[jla]

fyi

[Jeff Chandler]

Reading this is so very soothing.

[Publius]

Coehlo may be a crook, but he's a perceptive crook.

Coelho argues the problem is worsening.

Don't fret Tony. Ted Kerry says the Kerry ship will right itself (about thirty second before it slips beneath the waves, never to be heard from again).

[LouAvul]

Doncha luv it?

These idiots are on self-destruct, Bush is going to win by a landslide, and career dims are going to jump ship in record numbers.

The remaining dims will then try to restructure their party because they'll realize it's been hijacked by communists.

This is great!

When a lying POS like Coehlo shoves the knife in your back - you know you're in trouble. My favorite moment in Coehlo's public life was when he rapidly exited the House after putting in enough time to get into top leadership - about three footsteps ahead of the House Ethics Committee investigators. I think he used the catchall excuse that he wanted to spend more time with his family - which is a pretty interesting sudden discovery after a guy claws his way to the top in politics.

wow this is great news. cat fight bewtween the Clintonoids and the Massetts. Hope both sides are armed with political nukes.

That explains why The Swimmer is hitting the campaine trial. needs to bolster Cahill and Shrum or let the Clintons take over now.

[Pan_Yan]

If you go to Kerry, that’s a disaster because the candidate should not be involved in solving disputes or the creation of his message.

If someone can’t control a message in a presidential campaign, how are you going to be a good president?

BINGO!!

[coconutt2000]

Let's assume that all of that chaos was engineered by Hillary Clinton.

That means we can't wait for 2007 to start building momentum against her.

[macbee]

With yet another appointment of a former Clinton administration staffer to Kerry’s team on Tuesday...

If Kerry had ever held down a real job (like, say, project management), he'd know that adding more people to a team does not get more work accomplished in the near term. In fact, it usually slows things down.

But far be it from me to counsel him. (see new tagline)

[Argus]

IT'S THE CANDIDATE, STUPID.

[CFC__VRWC]

First of all, it's CBS, so I automatically assume that everything in here is unverified at best, an outright fraud at worst. Having said that, I read this as nothing more than CBS disguising as a "news story", a plea to Kerry to make Shrum and his hangers on walk the plank.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

CBS getting even, perhaps?

[concerned about politics]

“What I’m looking for is a Karl Rove and I don’t know where our Karl Rove is.”

And their Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, etc.

They'll never find them. Liberalism is unwanted.

[NewMediaFan]

Wonder why Shrum is such a legend in Dem circles with a 0-7 record?

A pro football coach with that many consecutive losing seasons would be ancient history.

[snooker]

I don't know what kind of clout a candidate with a 36% approval rating has. Sounds like he can't get any respect from his own staff :-}

[skinkinthegrass]

Hehehe...divide, distort and even more divisions...and $hrillary is there (everything going according to her plan) to pick-up the pieces in '08.

[small voice in the wilderness]

Wow. I've always wondered what it would be like to literally scrape the bottom of the barrel. And when Ted Kennedy starts campaigning for you, you are stone-cold out of options.

Misunderestimated.
