I love the comparison of those two pictures, it says all it needs to say.

W and Laura are in love. sKerry and teresa have an agreement.

"The pundits have never liked me," he said. "Is it the way I look? The way I sound?"

No, you East Coast, gigolo Brahman, the "pundits" and an American Majority never liked you because of your despicable Communist, anti-American values and your robust support of the welfare state.
By the way, the vast majority of MSM punditry loved you and your socialist agenda. It was only after your campaign that some, like at Newsweek, turned like jackals to feast on your bleeding carcass.

The 45,000-word article, the product of a yearlong reporting project, is being published next week as a book, "Election 2004,"

Yeh, that will be a hot seller....about like, uhhhh...ohhh...uuuuhhhhh ... the movie, Alexander or John Kerry, the movie.

The day after the election there was an article from the New Republic that was posted here (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1270551/posts). It describes the press and Kerry staff in Boston gleefully emailing each other on their Blackberries all day as the exit polls were released. "Who will serve in Kerry's cabinet? and "Will you move to Washington?" are questions that were asked. As the evening progressed it became clear that the exit polls were very, very wrong. The room fell silent.
I like to go back and reread that story. It is wonderful to think that those creeps who thought they were going to get control of the US government were sent back into their caves. I shudder to think of what a Kerry presidency would have been like!

So why the long face, Sen Kerry?

LOL!

Kerry's problem was two-fold: the messenger and the message.

Messenger: Never could get beyond Vietnam, 35 years previous. Never could get beyond being the elitist rich-kid. Never could inspire more than the ABB crowd. [John, all those votes weren't FOR you; they were AGAINST Bush. Remember that as you think you could do better in '08. If you run again, you'd do good to get 10 million votes, and that won't get you to the White House.]

Message: "I have a plan....but" That was the substance and scope of the Kerry message. A plan without substance or scope. "I would have done almost everything differently [in Iraq War]" Oh? How so? Why is different better? We never found out from the candidate.

Like Al Gore on '00, Kerry kept trying to find a voice, a message, a slogan (he tried half-a-dozen, mostly borrowed from others' campaigns). Kerry kept trying to reinvent himself. Well, if you don't start out with a clear message, it is difficult to make one up as you go. If you don't start out standing for something, you end up trying to transform into something you are not.

Yeh, John, your problem was the messenger and the message. Neither had much substance or scope.

Within six months they will be stacked 50 high in the cutout bin at the dollar store. Right next to Earth in The Balance, It takes a Village and the Y2K survival guides.

Hide? You LIVE under that rock, pal.

Oh man, Kerry's like the Prince of Whales!

It's disgusting. Obscene.

Someone posted these pictures during the campaign. They sit in California to Boston, New York, down south and the one is in England, if I am correct.

Just obscene.

[SheLion]

A house is not a home, regardless of size-poor Kerry is for all intents and purposes, h-o-m-e-l-y.....strike that, h-o-m-e-l-e-s-s.

Both of them are obscene.

There was a picture of her on the campaign trail I wished I had saved.

She was worming herself through the crowd, in a white shirt and tan pants and she had three bottles of beer in one hand. I sure wished I had saved that.

Lots of class, let me tell you! (not)

[tuffydoodle]

He didn't lose the marriage, he dumped it.

[tuffydoodle]

"your wife is a toad"

Funniest line of the year.

[F.J. Mitchell]

LOL!They would definately have besmirched the class and dignity the Clintons brought to the Office.

[hershey]

This is Kerry fighting irrelevancy tooth and nail. Too late. He's toast.

[hershey]

It will be amusing to see how he tries to outrun his history again in '08. He's like a cockroach, and if the Swifties don't stomp him again, Hill will.

It was reported many of the Kerry supporters had visited a therapist for severe mental problems prior to the election.

Mental problems prior to the election?

For this they needed to pay a therapist?

As was frequently posted on FR.......at no charge..... ..people supporting Kerry had to be nuts.

Come to think of it, b/c of their mental state, maybe Kerry supporters should think about their financial fitures and should invest in some really good money-makers.....maybe selling freezers to Eskimos, or buying shares in the Brooklyn Bridge, or maybe buying property on planet Jupiter.....good solid stuff like that.

"Imus returns from a two vacation tomorrow morning. Guess who his two guests are?

Alter and Fineman. Don't they both work for Newsweek?"

Those two dorks are in constant rotation on the Imus show.
You'll hear more criticism of the dems from John Kerry than these two sycophants. Topic one will be: "Bush waited too long to publicly speak of the Tsunami victims and how dare he only commit 35,000,000 bucks. It will be another blame Bush-fest.

[hershey]

Hmmm, TerAYsa doesn't believe in divorce, and Kerry doesn't believe in poverty, so he'll be taking good care of his meal ticket.

[Howlin]

Well, I won't forget, will you? So it's up to us to live until then at the very least.......LOL.
