"downside the campaign has often moved slowly"

[Allan]

More BS from the New York Times.

Does anyone actually read this article beyond the second paragraph?

I gave up reading the New York Times years ago simply because I was unable to.

Barf! Yet another in the endless stream of articles that attempts to transform every long-winded, indecisive liberal Democrat into some sort of deeper-than-deep Aristotle whose intellect operates on soooooo many levels that we mortals misinterpret such profound brainpower as mere pedantic palaver.

Some people are always needing 'one more' piece of information because they are actually incapable of making decisions. Seeking one more piece of information gives them cover and an excuse for delaying having to make a decision.

Kerry strikes me as that type of person; thus, the reason for all the flipflops. Kerry cannot settle on a position because, basically, he is indecisive.

Tuna, no wait, ham and cheese. Mustard or not? Oh, even better... how about horseradish? (Hmmm, rye has seeds, might get stuck in teeth.) Wheat bread, then. Hold it, how about fried chicken?

John F*ckin's indecisive to the point he can't manage his own campaign. Do you want to bet the last person he's talked to is the one that gets his nod? If Kerry wins, you can be sure we're going to be in for four years of paralysis and uncertain direction. The President's State Of The Union Addresses would become the stuff of legend. A moment's contemplation of this scenario reveals why a Kerry Presidency is simply not worth thinking about. You'd never get leadership from him as President and you aren't getting the sense he knows where to take his campaign. 'Nuff said.

Has John Kerry released his medical records?

[eeriegeno]

WoW? Now the NYT has done it and convinced me to vote for the sorry sonofabitch. What did it, you might ask? Well, it was the meticulous nature that they say John possesses just before his next flip-flop. Yep, he's my man........

Not sure why everyone is so upset about this article. If this is the best that the NYT can do to help Kerry, he's toast. Not many voters who read this will think, "Yeah, baby, that's who I want as President!"

I suspect that many of us have had bosses like Kerry, and hated it. They "major in the minors": obsessing about minutia and ignoring the core business. For Kerry to be uninterested in the mechanics of politics and unable to remember a key person's name simply confirms that he is truly a lousy candidate.

"His attention to detail can serve him well on big projects"

Like being in Cambodia on Christmas Eve was seared in his memory.

Why do I get the feeling that if elected, John Kerry will be scheduling time on the White House tennis courts as part of his "duties" and calling Kofi Annan, Jacques Chirac and other "foreign leaders" for advice on how to defend America?

Kerry sounds pretty insecure from this Slimes article. If he only knew where he stood, he wouldn't be so worried about consulting others for approval.
