Color Him Green, Kerry On Campaign Stump in Fla.

[onyx eyes]

Today, Monday, 10-18-04, 2:21 EDT, I'm checking the latest political news and when I stop on MSNBC, I see Kerry in Florida and he has a decidedly greenish cast to his hair, his suit, so much so that I wonder if my color adjustment on my television has mis-cued (sorry, about the non-pun) -- and I switch to CNN, which is running the exact same scene of a green-hued Kerry among his devotees, on the campaign stump.

All the other newscasts, including our local stations, showed the same brilliant green hue, from top to bottom. Green hair, green tie, green suit.

Now, I have been told that Kerry is a strong closer. That he comes out of nowhere to win. After today's fantastical experience, I am thinking "Incredible Hulk" serum?

David Banner, meet David Boner.

I heard Rush mention this morning that skerry had green hair on CNN

[cardinal4]

Rush mentioned this today on his show. I guess orange didnt work?

[NonValueAdded]

He was subliminally reclaiming his "Irish" roots. Talk about pandering!!! In WPB, he was probably having his staff whiusper about his Kohn ancestry at the same time.

Given the number of awkward and hilarious images of Kerry you have to wonder if the cameramen are pulling for Bush.

[MisterRepublican]

The green hue was to appeal to his Irish and Martian voters.

[KateatRFM]

Somebody brought up the fact that his Irish heritage is entirely bogus -- he is a Jew by heritage -- and the Catholics have repudiated him -- perhaps he's trying to recapture the Irish Catholic vote.

It ain't easy bein' green!

_{Actually John, we don't like you, angry or not.}

[Political Junkie Too]

I see Kerry in Florida and he has a decidedly greenish cast to his hair...

Is it the residual effect of his copper man-tan?

Qucik, someone cue "Rainbow Connection" from the Muppet Movie..!

[GSlob]

Oh no, just a greenpisser.

[katdawg]

Got to have me lucky charms.

I knew Kermit the frog. Kermit the frog was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Kermit the frog.

[WCoastRepublican]

Heh... isn't green the color of money?

[Theresawithanh]

Any pics to post? I like the Incredible Hulk connection. Maybe some talented FReepers could do something?

[Sloth]

Given the number of awkward and hilarious images of Kerry you have to wonder if the cameramen are pulling for Bush.

Probably boredom, and trying to avoid producing a shot that's indistiguishable from every other photographer's. Taking your three thousandth picture of the same person you've been following for months is probably fairly tiresome. (Unless maybe it's Sarah Michelle Gellar and you've been following w/o her knowledge.)
