Evan Thomas was just on "Imus in the Morning" on MSNBC. He's starting to spill his guts on the stuff the MSM hid from the public about John Kerry and his campaign.
First, Thomas admits that Kerry's staff took his cell-phone away from him twice, in order to prevent him from calling hundreds of people to decide what he should think about a particular issue. Imus adds that Kerry called him, Imus, on more than one occasion asking for advice.
This information was apparently not deemed newsworthy before John Kerry might have been elected President of the United States.
Next, Thomas candidly describes Teresa Heinz-Kerry as a self-absorbed hypchondriac. Whenever she spoke to gatherings during the campaign, she was boring and concentrated only on herself. (Of course, we knew that, but what we see is that the MSM was holding back from describing the kind of disaster that even they knew Teresa would have been had she become First Lady.)
More 'revelations' will doubtless follow.
Wondered then if Kerry and his people hadn't indulged too much to be seen.
Also,Kerry's "midnight rally" had a lot of FReepers saying that he seemed drunk when he spoke.
Not having to show bipartisanship to a bunch of mean-spirited loser 'rats still spewing bile, priceless.
hehehe, today was the first time I've turned to Imus in a LONG time (probably over a year).
Just couldn't help myself, I knew he'd be blue.
That's funny!
Yes. The Nation dodged a serious bullet.
I shuddered to think of him at the helm, internationalizing and globalizing and being indecisive and making the WoT into a police action and appointing several SC justices and the next Chief Justice. Kerry could have done significant damage to the Nation by basically giving control to France, the UN, and socialism.
I never stop, mb! It's a biblical mandate to pray for those in authority, that we might leave peacably.
Is that what we want in a Commander-In-Chief?
By the way, did anyone catch Paula Zond last night? Paul Begala and Kline from Newsweak were trying to explain to her how so many voters are worried about the moral culture and lack of values in this country. Paula couldn't comprehend it! It was humorously pathetic.
Look for a religeous revival in the RAT Party...at least for external consumption.
Or whomever he could get on his cellphone!
Had the Bush campaign taken your advice, we would be hearing the term "President-elect kerry".
We dodged a bullet......
Hope that you mean live peacefully.
You're probably right about the MSM. In fact it occurs to me that Fox's perceived shift to the middle or left is probably foreshadowing a major leap into the middle of the network news battle on its affiliates, now that the competition is sufficiently softened up.
I didn't catch "ditherer". I might have already started to write (the outrage raced to my fingers pretty quickly). But that certainly is the impression that Thomas was clearly intending to give--conveniently late, of course.

She should remember back before the emancipation proclamation,the old crone geezer looks like she is old enough to have dated Lincoln.

Kerry has never done anything good in his entire life. He has been a disgrace as naval officer, politician, gigilo, and human being. I too, hope he resigns his set, but he won't. Kerry likes to think he is important in his kommie-anti-American mind. Word from the streets, dog-sh-t carries more respect than skerry the (L)oser. Retired Army MP Vet.
Who's kerry?
I disagree. If Bush had gone after Kerry they way they were going after him, he would have lost support. The Democrats truly self-distructed (still haven't learned the lessons of the WELLSTONE FUNERAL).
Americans don't like bloody bull-fights.
How can we at this point, doubt the brilliance of Karl Rove and Karen Hughes? They did an amazing job.
