Democratic Sen. John Kerry said Tuesday that former President Clinton may be hitting the trail to campaign for him in the final two weeks before Election Day.
Clinton has spent the last six weeks recovering from heart surgery, with his doctors instructing him to get plenty of rest. Kerry campaign officials have eagerly awaited word whether Clinton could get out to personally encourage voters to support the Democratic presidential nominee.
Kerry told a Pennsylvania TV station that Clinton may come help him in the state where polls showed the Democrat tied with President Bush.
"I think it's possible in the next days former President Clinton may be here, working," Kerry told WGAL, the NBC affiliate in Lancaster.
Kerry adviser Mike McCurry, who served as press secretary in the Clinton administration, said no decisions have been made whether Clinton can campaign and that Kerry was only "expressing a hope."
"If he is able to travel, we would like him to consider Pennsylvania among other locations, but we have not had a firm answer on whether he was able to campaign or not," McCurry said.

Only an idiot like Kerry could consider this a good thing.
Who is going to report that Klinton does not want to campaign for this loser?
Get out the sympathy vote for dead man walking!
If the toon wants Hillary to run in 2008, he won't do it.
If he does, October surprise, dem style?
Roger Clinton...
Considering that a few years ago, whenever Clinton hit the campaign trail for a candidate, they lost. John should worry.
I do not think there is wide spread love for Mr. Clinton. (Having said that I hope he recovers well.)
Keep hope alive, dope.LOL
Absofreepinlutely perfect. Get ole screechin thunderthighs on it too! Stir the base and to hell with the swing votes!!
I don't know. Clinton is still pretty popular among Democrats and moderates. This might help Kerry a little
BJ "helped" Gray Davis out too!
Their own enternal polls must be pretty bad.
couldn't all that stress hurt billie-boy's heart?
maybe that's what kerry and hillary are counting on! I would not shed a tear myself.
I thought Al Gorge and Uncle Teddy were going to be out with sKerry too.....
what happened there?
I hope Clinton goes out,,it helps W!
Plus, I'm sure Edwards will say that skerry will help heal Clinton of all his woes, once the Comrade is elected....
Go knock on your neighbors front door and tell him Kerry claims he will be joining him...
I'm guessing that Kerry is hoping that Clinton will have a heart attack as he's trashing Bush, and that the Dems will get their somber state funeral afterall, right on the eve of the election, thereby tipping the election to Kerry. On the other hand, even if they do, Clinton might resurface after the election, none the worse for wear.
Sure did! Hehehehehehe! Let's hope ol' BJ's as much help to Scary-Kerry!
This sounds like it will be a half-hearted effort!
