John Kerry found himself speechless Wednesday, a serious predicament for a candidate for president.
The Des Moines Register reports: Laryngitis forced the Democratic nominee to dump plans to campaign in eastern Iowa today. Instead, his running mate, John Edwards, will take his place at a town hall-style event in Davenport and a rally in Cedar Rapids, campaign aides said.
Kerry "strained his voice. He's going to be resting his voice for the debate," said the candidate's Iowa spokesman, Colin Van Ostern.
The first of three nationally televised presidential campaign debates is Sept. 30 in Florida. The others follow quickly - Oct. 8 in St. Louis and Oct. 13 in Tempe, Ariz
It's easy to lose your voice when you have to verbalize 8 positions on every subject.
The Kerry Campaign figures if he doesn't speak, they can make up ground in the polls before the debates.
Well, there goes my idea of marketing his monotone, droning speeches as insomnia therapy.
This is what happens when your whole tactic is to yell about how vile, evil and Stu-Ped your opponent is.
Damn ... the ONE THING that could have happened to make this election a horse race ... John Kerry can't talk...
I wish he'd rest his voice DURING the debate.
Kerry had nothing important to say, so his voice took a powder.
If Kerry shuts up for a week he might gain 3-4 points in the polls. ;)
Well, I guess his face mysteriously found its way down into his larynx.
:-)
Bwaahahahahahahaaa - this creep knows he loses support every time he opens his mouth - I wonder how long he'll stretch this out. Friggin' chicken$hit.
Yeh, I know it's hoarse..... but.......... it was worth it.
Kerry speechless? One of God's great miracles!!!
And sKerry still has not released his personal medical records to show he is fit to be POTUS.....
I think he talked a lot, before he didn't
Where is the Florida debate? We are to have another huricane the beggining of the week.
Rrrrrrrrrrr...Fire BAD!!! Fire good, then bad!!! Bush start fire!!! Fire need to be sensitive!!! Rrrrrrrrr!!!
This sounds like a Divine Intervention to me.....LMAO!
